No doubt Daniel ‘Jacare’ He was a pioneer of contact sports in Spain and a reference in Málaga. However, now he is a rookie Bare knuckle To fight in front of his audience. A new discipline that you too want to shine.
ask How are the fight preparations going?
I have been giving it for two and a half months already focusing on the fight. But hey, it’s nothing we haven’t done before
Answer Well, it’s the second opponent, they changed it for me. I had a fight with a Bulgarian and I don’t know what happened to change my opponent. I have been giving it for two and a half months already focusing on the fight. But hey, it’s nothing we haven’t done before. That means you don’t have gloves, gloves… in the end it’s just another fight. That’s it.
Q. It will premiere on Bare Knuckle, yes…
R. I looked for it, I wanted to fight here for a long time. Actually, I wanted to retire because I practically finished my career and I wanted to retire, I wanted to do this. And I found out they were coming to Marbella and I said, ‘Holy shit, I want it and on top of it I don’t have to go out.’ I am here. Well they came together, the stars aligned.

Q. Your last fight?
R. My body doesn’t pull me like it did when I was 30 and besides my job, I have to travel a lot… In the end the training is not as professional as I would like it to be. Because I have to be in the gym morning, afternoon and night with specific trainers. I have to take care of my life. So, of course, it slows down a bit. I’m already 39 years old, a bit late since I retired, I should have done it already… but hey, it’s a method I wanted and wanted to do. After this fight? I don’t know what’s going to happen… If it’s not the last one, it’s the last one, I can’t tell you, but in principle I have it very much in mind.

Q. Now you are going to fight Chakao.
R. He is left handed. He is a boxer and we are into his style. And in the end, he is a strong man. He is Russian. It’s in their blood, you know? It’s in their blood and they have this aura. And the truth is, I don’t see it as bad. He’s a good boxer, I think, even though he’s been unemployed for a while, but he’s been boxing for 15 years.
Q. You already know, what it’s like to fight the Russians…
R. I have no problem because of nationality. It’s not that I fought the Russians, I just showed up at the Russians’ house and fought the greats who were there at their events. Bringing a Russian into my home is like a ‘thank you’ to me.

Q. What do you expect from Bare Knuckle?
R. You have to risk, your hands are blades so you have to risk and eventually you have to risk. I’m going to fight any fighter because he’s very reserved. I have to take a little risk. They have an easier time measuring distance because they are left-handed, while I am slightly in the air. So I risk, I risk, and I move on. I will definitely go ahead.
The moment you start receiving the first host, the movie already changes. You can either wrinkle or you can go ahead with everything
Q. Franco Tenaglia says it’s all in the mind at BKFC.
R. Yes, the moment you start receiving the first host, the movie already changes. You can either wrinkle or you can go ahead with everything. I mean, I’m already here with this guy who hits me with his knuckles and everything. what do i do I’ll jump and run or we’ll hit each other.. I think the people who come here at the end already know what’s out there and have that fighting spirit, that fighting spirit. This is a fun method.
