At 38, Elizeu is one of the oldest welterweights. He is also among the UFC athletes with the most MMA fights and said this has allowed him to refine his training to ensure maximum preparation.
“It was one of the best camps ever. No injuries. I'm in great shape physically, I'm in great shape mentally. It was incredible,” he said.
Elizeu Capoeira also analyzed his opponent, Njokuani. Based on the Brazilian's perspective, a good fight is coming.
“ He’s a striker, he’s a banger like me, and he likes to fight. But I see a lot of good opportunities. He’s also a black belt, so if we go down that path, we’re good too,” he explained.
