The Brazilian Mauricio Shogun and the North American Dan Henderson This Saturday (19), in San Jose, California, the main fight of UFC 139 will take place, where the winner should have the right to compete for the organization's light heavyweight belt, currently held by Jon Jones.
However, while a large part of the Brazilian public will be rooting for Shogun, another Brazilian will be on Henderson's side. Black belt Ricardo Pantcho Feliciano is responsible for Hendo's jiu-jitsu training and is confident of victory. To the SUPER FIGHTS, Pantcho asked for patience from the national public, but is betting on the North American's victory.
“He (Henderson) is ready and we will beat Shogun,” said Pantcho. “Guys, don’t get mad at me, but this is my job and my livelihood! I’m Brazilian like you,” added the black belt, who has already left his predictions for the confrontation.
