main name of UFC Sao Paulo, Jailton Malhadinho evaluated his performance after competing five rounds for the first time in professional MMA. Highlight in this Saturday's event (4), the Bahian had a dominant performance and beat Derrick Lewis in the unanimous decision of the judges. In a press conference, with the participation of SUPER FIGHTS, the Brazilian spoke about the subject.

“I was prepared to do five rounds. If the finish came in the first or second, I would be happy too. It was a testament to everyone that I fight five rounds. People think I wouldn't be able to handle it, because I'm a light guy, with a lot of lean mass. I fought the five rounds with gas, putting him down, looking for positions to finish and against a very heavy and strong guy”, said Malhadinho.
