Bananada wants WOCS belt

One of the biggest attractions of WOCS 5, which takes place on September 27th, at Clube Oásis, in Barra da Tijuca, is the 70kg mini GP. Some of the best in the category in Brazil will compete for the title, such as Fernando Paulon, André Minhoca, Fernando Bruno and Paulo Bananada, who won in the four previous editions of WOCS.

“I'm training as usual. I only put in a few extra minutes, as I can have up to two fights”, says Bananada, who is already keeping an eye on possible opponents.

“I have to be careful with all three of them because they are really good guys. I've seen some of Minhoca's fights live, including the last one, in which he beat Aloísio Dado. I’ve seen the others fight online and they’re all dangerous.”

Bananada still doesn't know who he will face, as the fight match will only be announced at the weigh-in. However, the fighter promises a great show.

“I already had the opportunity to compete for the Rio Heroes belt and, unfortunately, I lost in the final after 35 minutes of fighting. I want to make up for it in this GP now, I want that belt. I commit to giving my best, 200% of myself for this. I will fight hard
