He added that he didn’t expect Jan Blachowicz to be as big as he was, even though he trained with big men and heavyweights. He said that although he suffers cutting weight, he’s still willing to make the move back to Middleweight:
He was the first to admit that his fight was boring and didn’t go the way he expected:
He said that a full month prior, he had begun coughing and could barely sleep, eat, breathe or train properly. He said that the doctor in the United States treated it as an allergy but his doctor in Brazil revealed it was pertussis.
He hasn’t used that as an excuse by any means and also revealed that he’s very happy and excited to fight again and gave his timeline to return as four months. While UFC Brasilia is on March 14th, he stated no such preference for any particular event. That would, however, be a logical place to return and for him to headline a card.
Paige VanZant vs Amanda Ribas is the first fight scheduled for UFC Brasilia.
