Mauricio Ruffy He urgently needs to protect himself, as his name has been involved in a very unpleasant rumor. The top lightweight (up to 70,3 kg) fighter, who is preparing to face... Michael chandler No. UFC White HouseThe event, scheduled to take place on June 14th in Washington (USA), was criticized by many for its reaction to the big victory of Carlos Prates about Jack Della Maddalena, last Saturday (2). Without wasting any time, the former member of the 'Fighting Nerds' academy put an end to the controversy.

Speculation began after the official UFC Brazil profile posted a simple video of Ruffy celebrating 'The Nightmare's' victory. In it, the athlete stopped his training at the 'CORNERMAN' gym to watch Prates in action, openly expressed his happiness with the knockout in the third round, called him a phenomenon, and declared that he would be the welterweight champion (up to 77,1 kg). However, many saw a problem with Mauricio's behavior and, on social media, stated that he did not act naturally, called him a false friend, and questioned his loyalty.

But recently, through his Instagram Stories, Ruffy shared a recording of a call with Prates, in which they both laughed. In it, the athlete again congratulated his friend on the most important victory of his career and invited him to stay in Orlando (USA) during his preparation for the... UFC White House.

CONTINUES AFTER ADVERTISING:

It is quite true that Luffy has been heavily criticized for Jean Silva, largely due to its partnership with Alexander Volkanovsky, featherweight champion (up to 65,8 kg), and the departure from 'Fighting Nerds'. In any case, the fighter showed that he has no problem whatsoever with Prates and that the rumor pointing to a rift between them has no basis whatsoever.
