Brazilian highlight in UFC Las Vegas 31, Rudolph Vieira remains excited about his great performance in last weekend's show. After finishing Dustin Stoltzfus and win one of the performance bonuses (around R$260 thousand), the 'Black Belt Hunter' sent an irreverent message to the company president, Dana White. Speaking in English, the carioca celebrated the 'bolada'.

“Hello, Dana White, I still can’t believe I got the bonus. Benício (Rodolfo's son) was causing a loss in my pocket. I was feeling like a born badass, but I'll never forget my jiu-jitsu, because jiu-jitsu always saved my life”, joked the Brazilian, on his Instagram account.

Last Saturday (17), Rodolfo stepped into the octagon after suffering his first defeat as a professional in MMA, in February. In the fight, the Brazilian showed progress in his striking, connecting good jabs to his opponent's face.

After two balanced rounds, the athletes went for 'all or nothing' in the last round. Although he showed confidence in the stand-up fight, the Brazilian resorted to jiu-jitsu to settle the bill, submitting Stoltzfus and taking home the performance bonus afterwards.
