Paulo borrachinha has amassed enemies in the UFC and now adds another name to his list. After stalking and attacking Khamzat Shimaev, middleweight champion (up to 83,9 kg), the Brazilian, who ended his bad phase by winning Roman Kopylov in July, in Louisiana (USA), turned its focus to Ridder's Reinier. In fact, the athlete didn't mince words when provoking the Dutchman.

Borrachinha shared a video calling De Ridder a duck, implying that he was to blame for the duel between them not happening. Previously, the Brazilian announced that, after De Ridder's injury, anthony hernandez, the UFC offered him a spot to face the European in October. However, the Minas Gerais native suggested that the fight be three rounds instead of five, as in every main event, as he wouldn't have enough time to make weight.
