UFC lightweight Nasrat Haqparast expresses excitement about his upcoming match against Esteban Ribovics at UFC Vegas 103, despite not getting a top 15 opponent. He believes both fighters represent the new generation of lightweights and emphasizes the importance of consistency over hype. Haqparast, a veteran with considerable experience in the UFC, appreciates Ribovics's professionalism and hard work but is ready for a fierce battle. He advocates for less talk and more performance, believing in staying true to oneself rather than succumbing to hype.
"I asked for a top 15 guy, then my manager sent me his name, and I got really excited. He's the same generation as me, and I think this is the future top 15."
"I'm kind of a veteran. 14 UFC fights, this is my 8th year in the UFC. This matchup is very violent. I look forward to Saturday and I can say the same about Esteban."
"I like less talking and more performing. You see so many hype jobs... This sport it's about consistency. Not about who creates the most hype in the first or second year."
