The Brazilian Raphael Assunção manifested itself after the harsh defeat suffered by cody garbrandt No. UFC 250, held last Saturday (6), in Las Vegas (USA). Head down, the bantamweight (up to 61,2kg) reassured fans about his health after the knockout and assured that he will come back stronger.

"Hey, guys. I wanted to thank everyone for their support, as always. I'm not injured at all. The blow to the face doesn't even have a mark or anything. I'm pretty disappointed in myself. I’m going back, okay?”, said the Brazilian in a video published on Instagram.
Last weekend, the Pernambuco native had the tough task of recovering from two consecutive defeats and, ahead of him, he would have to beat the former division champion, cody garbrandt, who was also not going through a good time within the organization. After a very technical and studied first round, the Brazilian ended up surprised with a knockout near the end of the second round.
With the negative result, Raphael ended up suffering his third consecutive defeat and ended a streak of more than three years without victories for the North American. Now, Assunção will have to win his next match to regain his dream of competing for the division belt.
