"it's not a matter of some issues that need to be solved. The fight was scheduled already and i'll be happy if it finally happens. He seems to be a respectful guy towards his opponents and has been doing an excellent job in the weightclass. Today he surprised me. I never expected him to KO the iron hillbilly like that. He really suprised me. I want it [fight him]. If he wants to fight me, i wanna fight him. I hope, after i come back to trainning now, UFC schedules this fight again in the near future".
injury: "My doctor will run some final tests this week to see if the fracture is healed. If everything is OK, i'm gonna go back to trainning and if i dont feel anything wrong during trainning, i'll tell the UFC i'm ok and they can book the fight. I dont know when, but late August or early September would be ok".
Shoeface winning: "I was emotional. I turned the mic off because i couldnt talk much [he was commentating for brazilian TV], but when i had to talk, i couldnt show bias. I tried to explain what was happenning in the fight to the people at home, but inside i was exploding with happinnes. During his post figh interview inside the cage i couldnt hold it and ended up extrapolating a bit. I dont know if the TV guys liked it. I apologize if they didnt like it. I was really happy. He deserves it, he's a kid that just started trainning MMA in 2013. He is a BJJ world champion and has a lot to show us. I'm sure that, if he keeps this pace, soon he'll be an UFC champion".
