“I hope it’s quick. I'm not going to the ground. It's a waste of time for both of us if we break down. We're going to spend our energy fighting on the feet. I expect him to come at me, throwing punches and I'll do the same until one of us goes down. One of us is going to fall”, said the athlete from Cape Verde, in an interview with 'BJPenn.com'.

Known for his knockout power, Yorgan is going for his third appearance with UFC gloves. The athlete wants to recover from the defeat he suffered to Greg hardy, in May, when he lost in the judges' decision. To do this, the fighter exudes confidence to put on a show against the Brazilian.

Just like De Castro, Carlos needs a negative result. The athlete will step into the Octagon for his second commitment to the organization.
