“Not that I feel bad for him. I think everyone was very well promoted. I even saw fighters from the preliminary card being very well promoted. I think everyone deserved their spot. Of course, Lins wasn't the main guy, but even so, he was promoted and I thought he was good. Although I believe he was promoted, I think he was underestimated,” said the MMA star.

“I saw everyone dismissing him, but the guy I faced, of course I beat him, was tough. He took some punches, but he gave me an opening. He has a place. If he fights someone else, he can make a good impact. In fact, I think he's the one who deserves the 'Performance of the Night' bonus. Therefore, we should give the award to Lins,” he concluded.
