When I got the news I accepted the fight right away. I feel prepared, I've put in the work with my team, and an opportunity sent to me by God.
I represent Chute Boxe. I feel at home with them, and happy to train with Charles Oliveira. We're here for war, and happy that we're always rising up the rankings.
I studied Asu and he's a strong wrestler, but he's got holes in his striking. That's going to be my target. Lots of pressure, good defense which I've worked on for a long time, and I'm going for the victory.
