Kolehmainen has one of the toughest beats in Finland.

If a few young people were selected from the streets of Helsinki, probably none of them would recognize the picture From Anton’s dry, Teemu Packalénia or especially Tom Niinimäki.

Instead Theo Kolehmainen At least someone with very high probability would recognize. The gentlemen mentioned above are former UFCs. Kolehmainen, on the other hand, is an amateur -like player who is just moving to professional cages.

There are already over 11,000 followers on Instagram – much more than many other Finnish matches.

Kolehmainen has raised his awareness like a rocket. Big thanks for that belongs to the Ice Cage organization and matches Magamed Gadiev against.

Theo against Theo Maga Saaga sold the Ice Cage 1 and 3 night to the full.

– The popularity feels really good. Many people under the age of 20 or 18 recognize me on the street. However, I am not so social that I like to talk terribly to talk to strangers, so sometimes I feel like the gang stares. And now I don’t want to sound like I’m famous, Kolehmainen grins.

Fists are swinging

Fists speak. There is one reason for popularity.

Known under the “Not Play” ring, Kolehmainen trusts in an aggressive match style. The cage starts elegantly as a winner or a loser.

– Dare to take. It’s something that separates him from many others. In all situations, the idea is to see what stroke could knock the opponent in the chin. Not just about having rocky fists. Above all, Theo wants to go. The routine is good. The more minutes below, the more likely you are to get to your level, says Kolehmainen coaching Jaakko Dahlbacka.

Dahlbacka also works as an expert in Iltalehti’s martial arts. Kolehmainen admits that he has thought more about the importance of social media even before the hype created by Ice Cage.

Dahlbacka sees that the 24-year-old competitor was now in good shape.

-When Theo came up in the Ice Cage, the show fighting in Finland has only raised its head for the first time. It is a new phenomenon in Finland, and Theo has been on Aaltonhar.

Almost in Finland

There is quite evidence of a rocky fist. Kolehmainen visited last year hitting a record score For a device that measures the power measuring, the R5 hall in Helsinki.

The right hand hook hit the target with 63,552 watts.

– It wasn’t such a bar joy. Basic hook. Certainly someone may have hit me harder before, but the stroke must hit the center very well in order to make the power perfectly on the meter, Kolehmainen opens.

Martial Arts Backpack of the Master’s thesis at the University of Jyväskylä Michael Paajanen says that after Kolehmainen, the device has been even tougher.

– Still, Theo’s result is at the forefront. Especially when proportional to the weight of a person. Of course, bigger ones can hit harder, says Paajanen, who works in the R5 hall.

More than 100 athletes from full contacts with upright vertical matches have been on the machine.

A dream come true

Kolehmainen, who grew up in Espoo and has a self-herself as an Espoo, played hockey for a long time and registered for the first martial arts elementary course at the age of 17. At that time, the sport was still boxing.

Sure, he has taken boxing matches lately, and there is another one in the spring, but the main sport has changed.

Have you ever been afraid of a ring or cage?

– Yes, I guess all of it is sure to know it. However, it is more associated with the fear of loss. Losing is such a bad thing for myself.

Somesi’s favor alone does not guarantee a successful career. Matches must be won.

A professional debut is coming in the spring at the Helsinki Ice Hall. Kolehmainen encounters his strong wrestling background known ARESH AMIRKHAN Ice Cage 4 night.

-Professional matches include a show side. Get your gloves alone and there are no other shelters.

Dahlbacka sees that Kolehmainen’s style can be even better suited to the professional side.

– In amateurs, the items are shorter, and then strong wrestlers get an advantage. In professionals, holisticness is emphasized as one round rises to five minutes. In addition, he has the ability to perform in and outside the cage. It’s a big part of the sport.
