“Today, I left the hotel with a very bad feeling. I knew it wasn't my day. (…) I got in there, but I didn’t really fight as I am.

With a performance below that which led him to an unprecedented victory of the flyweight title for Brazil, Deiveson justified his lackluster performance. According to the man from Pará, the weight cut ended up influencing the setback.

“It was the weight cut. I didn't have a healthy weight cut. It was very difficult, but I did it. Even so, I didn’t have an adequate income”, he concluded.
