The 37-year-old Japanese legend, who currently fights for ONE Championship, has been competing at the highest level of the sport for years.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to<a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/exclusive-interviews\/shinya-aoki-has-singular-goal-ahead-of-one-championship-return-fight-as-long-as-i-can\/\"> BJPENN.com<\/a> recently, the Japanese MMA legend revealed the keys to longevity in the combat sports industry.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt comes down to three aspects,\u201d Aoki said. \u201cI\u2019ve stayed natural\u2014I\u2019ve stayed clean for this long in terms of doping. I\u2019ve also had no dramatic weight cuts. Finally, I just have passion for the sport and taking time every day to continue training.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Despite the many years he&#8217;s spent competing at the highest level in MMA, Aoki has no plans to hang up the gloves, and aims to continue fighting for as long as he&#8217;s able.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI\u2019m not thinking about retirement, period,\u201d Aoki said. \u201cThis is a way of life for me. I want to continue being a fighter for as long as I can. A lot of people have intrinsic motivations, be it money or family or something along those lines, but it\u2019s just part of my lifestyle, and I\u2019ll continue for as long as I can.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI don\u2019t really see becoming the [ONE] lightweight champion as a goal,\u201d he added. \u201cI\u2019m sure many people have that goal. I don\u2019t really see the belt as something I need to get once again, as long I can continue training and stay healthy and fight as long as I can. That\u2019s what\u2019s important for me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Over the course of illustrious MMA career, Shinya Aoki has captured titles in ONE, DREAM, and Shooto.
