“It's difficult to say who will win the fight, because they both have strengths and weaknesses. I think that Luke Rockhold He has a good ground game and knows how to fight on his feet. Then, Chris Weidman He has good takedowns, and knows how to control well on the ground. It's hard to say. I think whoever brings the best strategy will win the fight, and I bet on Weidman”, analyzed the Brazilian.

Lyoto will return to the UFC octagon on June 27, in Miami (USA), when he faces Yoel romero in the main fight of the TUF Brasil 4 finals.
