Bisping, as always, took the stage provoking his opponent and talking a lot. At one point, he even “punched” Henderson in the stomach, who just laughed at the situation.

PUBLICITY:

“There he is, the old man Dan Henderson. Good luck, may God bless you. Don't worry, man. I'm going to kiss you with this – my fist – (Bisping then punched Hendo in the stomach). It's a little soft there. Do some abs, man (…) Without TRT it will be easy. This (the belt) will stay here, partner”, teased the current champion.

“I expected him to be the guy he is. It was fun. I kept my mouth shut. I know I have my chances on Saturday. The more he says, the more he'll look like an idiot when I'm done with him”, said Hendo immediately after the clashes, and then confirmed that this will be the last fight of his career regardless of the result.

Another six fighters also performed the traditional faces in front of the camera, including the Brazilian Vitor belfort, which faces Gegard Mousasi in the second most important attraction of the night. The two maintained respect and kept the atmosphere mild when they came face to face, the same situation as Ovince saint preux and Jimi Manuwa, who face each other in the light heavyweight category, and the heavyweights Stefan struve and Daniel Omielanczuk.

UFC 204 will be held this Saturday (08) and will start at 20:00 pm (Brasília time) with coverage from SUPER LUTAS, with narration of the fights in real time, reports of the fights and post-event interviews.
