Recovered from the controversial setback, Chute Boxe fighter Diego Lima promises to return to the path of victory and dreams of a title fight, without thinking about a rematch against Mlambo.

PUBLICITY:

“I can't wait to come back against Quero. I've seen some of your struggles and I think marriage is very good for me. I'm not thinking about a rematch against Mlambo, even though I think the referee “went crazy” by stopping the fight. I want to fight for the belt and then I think about getting that victory back”, commented the Brazilian, who admitted he was surprised by the call to fight in Africa.

“It's the first time that a big event goes to Africa and I never imagined I would fight there. I want to arrive in Morocco, do my best, leave with a big victory to please my fans and now seek my title.”
