Michel Prazeres made his lightweight debut in September 2013 and in nine fights he had just one defeat. However, the Brazilian's problem was with the scale. On three occasions he was unable to reach the required 70,3 kg and as a result, Ultimate forced him to move up to welterweight. In the new division, the man from Pará beat Zak Cummings and Bartosz Fabinski. The fighter has a record of 28 fights, with 36 triumphs and two setbacks.
