“Guys, as you all probably know, my opponent, TJ Dillashaw, got injured and we won't fight again on the 25th. It's a shame, because I was preparing myself in the best possible way for this fight. So I only have one thing to say right now: Dillashaw, you can run, but you can't hide. Your time will come and you will have to do everything you say you are going to do, without running away, or I will make you eat your words. I’ll be waiting”, wrote the Brazilian.
