Fabricio Werdum secures a new victory
In the recent event of the world's most prestigious mixed martial arts company, Fabricio Werdum achieved a new victory. It is not yet clear who he will compete against in his next fight, but he is very clear about who he wants to compete against.
"I feel that I deserve to fight for the title. Not only because of my two recent victories. I have defeated great fighters like Fedor Emelianenko, Cain Velasquez, Minotauro Nogueira. I have a history. I have been fighting for twenty years."
Before this fight, the Brazilian spoke about Alistair Overeem vs. Francis Ngannou.
"I want to prove that I am waiting for an opportunity for the title. I don't want to wait too long. I don't care who the champion is. I just hope to have the opportunity to compete for the title."
I think maybe Overeem deserves the opportunity too, but Ngannou doesn't. Because he has just started. He has many victories in the UFC, but he still doesn't deserve it. But he will get it if he defeats Overeem. Although I don't think he can defeat Stipe Miocic. I deserve it because I have been fighting for twenty years."
