The Brazilian Fighting Championship card, an event that takes place on July 9th, in São José do Rio Preto, in São Paulo, is taking shape. This Friday, the organization announced a major international challenge.
Brazilian Gerson Índio, 29 years old, will face Paraguayan sensation Edgar Dayan, who is undefeated with seven victories, four of them against Brazilians. The dispute is now worth the show's Belt of the Americas.
With experience in major international events, the athlete from the interior of São Paulo promises to end his opponent's unbeaten run
“I’m going to show him that I’m Brazilian, and Brazilians never give up,” said Índio. “I train hard every day thinking about victory. I know how to fight up and down. I want to win and represent my country well”, he declared.
The Paraguayan hides his game. But not trust. “I will show again in Brazil that Paraguay has good fighters, and that MMA is in my Guarani blood”, highlighted Dayan.
