“I will state this was the hardest battle I’ve had in the company, not since of the battle itself, since I was quite sure what he was going to do, and I understood things that were going to take place, however I would certainly state that this was the hardest one in this company since of the reality that it went to the 2nd round.”
Brito on the call home after his win
Joanderson Brito
“First thing I do is call my household. I attempt to be as linked as possible to them, particularly since throughout battle week, I feel I’m doing not have a bit due to the fact that often it gets late and I’m unable to call. The very first thing I do is call my household after the battles.”
Brito on what he desires next
Dan Ige
“It’s type of a joke now to call out Dan Ige since I keep calling him out, however specifically due to the fact that I do seem like he does not wish to combat me. I would like the UFC to really offer me more regular battles. I want to be more active and I want to have 3 battles a year. If they provided me a battle in February or maybe the start of March, for me that would be best– definitely best.”
