“When the UFC created the 'BMF', 'toughest man', (the fight) ended with a cut on the guy's face. Nate diaz (in November last year). Who the fuck tough is this? When the UFC tried to put (Yoel) Romero for the belt (in March of this year) after a defeat, it was a fiasco. Yesterday, the 4th option for the title came out due to Covid. MMA punishes”, wrote Paulo.

Borrachinha concluded, giving his opinion on what the policy for confirming title fights should be within the organization.

“There are no shortcuts in MMA. Finding a way, trying to cut corners, doing it the easy way will always go wrong. The wrong thing, in MMA, will always go wrong”, he concluded.
