Meanwhile, Ryoma is already surrounded by a handful of Japanese reporters who have flown all the way to London just to talk to him. Actually, there is supposed to be a separate press conference for him after Malik's session, but apparently, waiting is not one of their strengths.
By now, they have already been talking for quite some time, and Ryoma seems to be enjoying the conversation more than he expected.
"You're still asking me about that sparring session?" Ryoma says with a small chuckle. "Come on. It's been weeks already. Don't you people ever get tired?"
"Unfortunately, your title fight ended rather quickly," says a middle-aged journalist.
"Yeah, we've been following you for quite a while now, and tonight we barely got to see the things you usually do best," adds another one.
"Sorry to your management team," a female journalist says, "but it seems like they picked a rather soft opponent for you this time."
