After conquering another victory, the fighter Paulo Borrachinha surprised a lot by commenting on its sequel in the UFC. Not sure if he wants to continue with the current contract in the organization, the Brazilian opened the game about a possible departure from the entity and revealed to be a little worried about what is best for him.
“I have to confirm, I’m a little detached from it, I just focused on fighting and training with my friends. but i think it is [última luta do contrato]. I honestly don’t know, I need to sit down, think, see what’s on the table, what the best path will be. The UFC is a great company, I’m very grateful, but I need to see what’s best for me too“, the fighter told the website ‘Combate’.

About the fight won last weekend, Paulo Borrachinha made his side clear and provoked the rival Luke Rockhold, who was severely punished, but held the Brazilian’s strength and took the decision to the judges. However, Borrachinha’s rhythm was the key point for the victory inside the Octagon.
“I said I was going to retire him and I did. Want a knockout or submission, but it’s ok, it was a good fight. I didn’t want to talk to him for a while because he took a lot personally, but I understand that’s part of it. I expected Luke Rockhold to be a little desperate, a little emotional, I think he held back, before he was very agitated, but at the time of the fight he was more conscious“, he assessed.
“I tried to finish the fight, I think I got too close in the first round. My team gave me this feedback, it was very close, I tried. But I think that coming from two defeats, I unconsciously become a little more conservative. I saw that I was winning the second round, third too“, continued Paulo Borrachinha.
“Maybe I could have tightened it a little more, but in order not to run the risk of the opponent counter-punching me, I was more conservative. Next time I’ll think about it more and be more diligent to finish the fight. He [Rockhold] is a bit of a talker, likes to talk, I’m not one to talk. But in the third round I was on his back, bugged, he started talking to me“, ended.
