Bellator 229: Lorenz Larkin is ‘baffled’ that ‘everybody ducks’ Andrey Koreshkov
Ed Mulholland-USA TODAY SportsAndrey Korsehkov has a hard time finding fights, according to Lorenz Larkin, but “The Monsoon” is ready to answer the call.
Larkin (20-7) takes on Koreshkov (22-3) in the main event of Bellator 229. Larkin was surprised to learn his opponent had such a hard time finding fights.
“He is this guy that everybody ducks. I’m baffled with that. This whole thing. Everybody ducks him,” Larkin told Bloody Elbow.
Larkin argued that Korsehkov has fallen short to the only two elite fighters he has faced. “The two guys that he fought [at the top-level] are Douglas Lima and Ben Askren.”
