In this frank, no-nonsense interview filmed inside a high-intensity Thailand camp, Dutch-Moroccan striker Mohamed Boutasaa opens up about his daily grind, career choices and what he wants next. Boutasaa — a former Enfusion champion who has also fought under ONE Championship and competed at a high level in Europe — explains why he left ONE despite being on a winning run: he needs frequency. As a young fighter he wants to compete often, not sit idle for long stretches. Now a free agent, Boutasaa is clear: “If GLORY wants to talk — we can talk.” What we cover in this interview • Brutal training format Boutasaa uses in Thailand: 3 rounds × 4 minutes with only 30 seconds rest — every round a fresh opponent. This is not light sparring; it’s full-power, fight-tempo preparation designed to build toughness and real-fight conditioning. • Why heavy sparring matters: how these sessions force mental toughness, sharpen timing under fatigue and prepare fighters for real pressure. • Career decisions: why he left ONE (lack of fights), his desire to stay active, and what being a free agent means for his next move. • Why kickboxing, not MMA: Boutasaa states directly that MMA is not his path — kickboxing is where he wants to make his legacy. • Goals & mindset: he wants to test himself against the best in Thailand, Europe and worldwide — no shortcuts, only hard work and top competition. • A lighter moment: the interview ends with a laugh about coach Maik Polanen calling fighters by last names — a small look inside camp culture. Why this matters This is a window into the life of a modern pro kickboxer who chose activity over comfort. If you want to understand how elite fighters prepare, why fighting frequency matters, and what a free agent fighter is thinking — this interview is for you. #champion #fighter #kickboxing #glory #enfusion #onechampionship #thailand #interview
