The black belt Paul Philo is back on the Bitetti Combat card, an event that takes place this Thursday, February 25th, in Brasília. The fighter who had been cut due to personal problems is back on the show at the request of his opponent, the Japanese Yuki Sasaki
“Sasaki said he would only fight if it was with Paulão. Knowing this, Paulão said that now he fights anyway. He’s really going to fight!”, explained Amaury Bitetti, event promoter.
Thales leites, who would replace Paulão in the main fight of the night, remains on the card, and his opponent will be announced by the organization in the coming hours.
“Thales is one of the best in the world in its category. Imagine if we were going to leave him out of this, especially after the manly attitude he had towards us, when he agreed to fight, even at the last minute. In the end, I think everything went well and Brasília will have an even better event”, celebrates promoter Fernando Miranda.
