A knockout of the year competition was not enough for UFC Welterweight Carlos Prates after its peak-reel finish of Geoff Neal on UFC 319 on Saturday evening.
Sheet (22-7) Landed an annoying rotating elbow on Neal that put the veteran Welterweight on the canvas. Then he took the microphone and called his shot for a bonus and a fight at UFC Rio in October. UFC CEO Dana White is said to have immediately with both both there and there.
So who would be a scrap in Brazil against Prates? Perhaps colleague -Welterwet Michael ‘Venom’ page.
“Bro everyone who gets on the cage on Rio October 11, I will be there,” said Praterers reporters including Cageid Press at his post-fight scrum.
“The first option of course Leon (Edwards). I am here to fight against the best guys in the world. Then I can prove that I am the best in the world. Everyone who gets into the cage, I will be there.”
Prates seemed very intrigued by the idea of a MVP matchup, given the different styles they both possess. The Brazilian seemed dizzy about the proposed fight.
“It will be good. It will be really interesting. He has inspired me for a long time. If UFC gives me it, that’s okay, let’s fight,” he said.
“I really enjoy fighting five rounds the last time. Let’s take a look. I’m going to celebrate a bit, and then I go back to the gym two weeks. I will think about five rounds or three.”
