Speaker 1 (01:47):
You know what I was stinking? I see that. Listen
no seriously, because I'm a very wise guy. Okay, you
know what I was just thinking about? You? And I
sitting down like this again.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Okay, might be good luck, because do you remember the
first time when we sat down.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
To get an interview? Brazil, Brazil, Singapore, Singapore. You're a
nice first interview. What happened on Saturday? I won the belt,
you became the champ.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
I just maybe your good luck charm and he didn't
even have to rub my ball head.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
You have to do that, Champ. Thank you for checking
in with me. You're a man.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
You're before we go forward to the fight. USC three
hundred was a big, big moment for you. Big fight,
big opportunity. Bounce back from that starts not the best.
It felt like to me that you just said I'm
not losing. Yeah, I decided to go get this dude?
Was that going through your mind?
Speaker 4 (02:48):
My mind is going just to find the right distance
for my target and to catch him. Just I need
there's a there's a a in a start of the fight.
There's every time, like a few moments to to really
catch the target. Yeah, targeted, my my the opponent. The
(03:10):
to find the right distance, and it's my bet that
I have to sacrifice sometimes a few low kicks. And
right now I realize it's not can be Uh.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Oh man, you just went into my next question.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
You went into one of my questions from now.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
But it's it makes sense. Yeah, because Alex Pereira, I
know you, everybody knows he can. He he kicks the
these uh low kicks, calf kicks, and I have the
light stands yeah, and uh, that's something what right now
I need to upgrade. So I worked on that.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
That's what I was gonna say, Like, have you had
enough time to fix that, because in the first fight
between you and Perrera you were doing well but then
you took so many calf kicks that.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
You're almost like stuck in front of it. Yeah, sah,
that's right.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
How quickly after that fight did you go back and say,
I've got to get better there?
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Because again in the fight.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
With the Rakage it was the same man. And uh, yeah,
I realized that. And right now it's not just about
to to for me, and especially in the short notice,
it's not about the repeating on the training, but it's here, yeah,
to to really realize you can't do this. Really you
(04:28):
want to win, don't do this. So that's something what
I need to keep. I will and I will.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
You know, this thing came together pretty quickly. I remember
a few weeks ago when the whole McGregor's situation started
to pop off. Right, no press conference. I don't know,
like you you said you have a samurai lifestyle. Are
you paying attention to all this like no press conference?
And are you seeing all this while what's happening?
Speaker 4 (04:52):
Yeah, I saw that, and what do you watch it?
I negotiate TV.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Are you watching the TV?
Speaker 4 (04:59):
No? No, my manager that message me in that and
I already knew that like.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
That, you have to be the guy that's pressuring.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
Careful because you know how to wait for the right moment,
the right moment.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
You know, when I watch you fight, especially that last one,
you you are aggressive, but then you find that moment
there's no better feeling when you finish that fight. Did
you figure I'm gonna be the next guy finished championship?
But then he ultimately said it, he goes, it'll be
(05:39):
your pro hosca, that's who I want to fight next.
Why do you think he has a desire to compete
against you in the way that he does?
Speaker 1 (05:46):
I know why.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
I know why I feel because I think you're just
a tremendous mixed martial artist and when you're testing yourself
at the highest level, you want to fight the best.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
But why do you think he always kind of seeks
you up?
Speaker 4 (05:57):
I think or I think I felt that, like from
the first fight, because the first and the first round,
the second.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Round, yeah was in my hand.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
Yeah, well that was really fir maybe in that case.
In this case, I have the challenge from him being.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Down, yes, and maybe if I don't know what is
his motivation?
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Do you remember winning the championship the first time in Singapore,
the excitement you felt then you had that horrible injury
to come back. What would it mean to you to
win this championship again on Saturday?
Speaker 1 (06:30):
Right now? Everything?
Speaker 4 (06:31):
Right now, it's for me everything, And maybe I don't
realize that yet, but because every time I'm leaving the
situation to awake all the power from myself in that moment,
and like I feel that right now.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Have you had many rematches in your career?
Speaker 2 (06:55):
One with Kingbo only one and he won the first
time by wrestling you, and then you knocked him out
on the second time. What do you think would mean
more to your proshka winning the belt or winning the
belt from Alex Perera because.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
He beats you the first time.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
I don't take it like that really, Like for me,
it's not like Vendetta or something like that. It's for me,
like to show my best, and especially with the guy
who found a key on me.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
And right now I know how.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
To especially with the information, when you know how to
how to beat him.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Just do that.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
You've seen some you've seen some things in a fight
where you know you can exploit.
Speaker 4 (07:48):
Yeah, but it's not about like you know something. What's
I know? I believe it's in me and I will
show that.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
What did you do with the belt the first time
when you want? Well, was the first thing he did
when you got home with the belt? And what are
you planning to do with the belt this time? Because
I remember when I got my first belt, I sleep with.
Speaker 4 (08:09):
To the b ball like yeah, because we are this
like small country in Europe, and I think we need
to be more self confidence here there, check Republic.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
And this is the good chance.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
You watch the European soccer not really not too much
right now because yeah, because of a fight. But you're
a soccer guy. Yeah sometimes yeah, Well, when you get
done with this fight and you're ready to play, play me.
