“With the ranking update, this fight makes even more sense, since 'BamBam' is in sixth place and I am in ninth. Both top 10 and in close positions. Tuivasa has absurd knockout power and a wide range of submissions. A classic style clash between striker e grappler”, He stated.

Finally, Jairzinho suggested the date and place for the clash. The Bahian's desire is to share the octagon with his rival in Australia, home of the 'giant'.

“The best stage for this fight would be in Sydney. The boss (Dana White) has already announced the UFC's return there on September 10th. Tuivasa has already posted to compete there and now I'm asking to face him on his home soil. There's nothing better than fighting at home. I'm offering him this privilege. Tai tuivasa, I really respect your trajectory, your fighting style and personality. That's exactly why I would like to face him. Do you accept?”, he concluded.

Promising for the future of the heavyweight division, Malhadinho is undefeated in the company. In five challenges, the Brazilian passed his rivals on the fast track.
