After breaking the bank in the duel against Giga Chikadze, the featherweight (up to 65,7kg) made a point of celebrating his triumph in the UFC Las Vegas 46. In an interview still in the octagon after the fight, the North American did not hide his happiness with the result and emphasized his 'comeback' after the categorical defeat to Max Holloway.

“I knew what I had to do. I think everyone is learning. I know I can fight like this if I have to. I still have to clean this s**t up. This is no way for a winner to look or be in, but I'm happy to come away with the win,” said Calvin.
Defeated categorically by Holloway in his last fight, Kattar responded to critics for doubting his potential and praised his opponent this Saturday (16).
“I feel great. Giga (Chikadze) is a tough fighter. They all kept talking about this fight (against Max Holloway). All. As I have been saying, not everyone is counting on you, don't mind them, as long as you believe in yourself. That’s all that matters”, concluded Kattar.
Fifth in the rankings, Calvin returned to his winning ways with the triumph over Giga. Even with the setback to Holloway, the American has won three of his last four fights. Kattar has a record in professional MMA of 23 triumphs and five setbacks.
