After the press conference, the “Crazy Dog” revealed that he saw fear in the eyes of his enemy, who will have his second fight in Bellator, after being submitted by Tito Ortiz at the beginning of the year. Wand makes his debut for the promotion.
“I saw fear in your eyes. He is afraid. His time will come. As my father always says, “You can’t play with a man.” His time will come, it is already coming. He talks a lot, but everyone knows he's a chicken. He can already feel my hand. I know I'm going to finish this fight. He's scared, but he can't run anymore. When they close the cage, I will make you pay”, said Wanderlei in an interview with the North American website MMA Junkie, explaining the initiative to push Sonnen.
“It was revenge. He did this in Brazil, he pushed me and put me down and now I'm going to get revenge. I haven't put him down yet, but during the fight I'm going to make him pay for all of this”, commented the “Crazy Dog”.
