Heavy weight (up to 120,2kg.) Fabricio Werdum is not satisfied with the result in the main fight of PFL 3 this Thursday (6). In a post-fight interview, 'Vai Cavalo' once again complained about a possible withdrawal from Renan Problem and stated that he will meet with the New Jersey Athletic Commission (NJSACB) to try to reverse the result.

"It was a mistake. A very strong error. I could clearly see that he gave two very strong (slaps). It's a shame, but let's see if we can reverse this result, because we could clearly see that he hit. It's part of the game and now we're going to try to resolve it”, said Werdum in a live broadcast on 'Instagram'.
Still according to Werdum, the supposed refereeing error was not intentional, but there is 'a lot' involved. The veteran also said that he felt good in the duel and will do everything possible to change the result of the defeat to Renan Problem.
“I think it’s a pretty big mistake. I don't think it was on purpose, but it's a mistake. It's my career, it's a championship that's going on and there's a lot of things. I showed that I am fit and 100%. I put it down, hit it on top. But what to do? We will do everything we can to reverse the situation. All the commentators said that the guy (Renan Problem) it hit. Let’s go after it”, concluded the gaucho.
UNDERSTAND THE CONTROVERSY
The fight got off to a lively start between the fighters, with both fighters throwing flying tackles in the opening seconds. Werdum took advantage of the opportunity and put the fight down. When he tried to make transitions, Renan Problem managed to reverse the situation. Then, the controversy happened. When falling into a triangle, the 'giant' would have tapped as a way of withdrawing from the fight. However, the fight was not stopped and he continued delivering hard blows to 'Vai Cavalo' until the referee stopped him.
