[QUOTE = willpunisher; 677,010] [B] too much to translate so im mention the main things .. [/ B]
Says that the first phase of the training was with Minotouro for his fight and than for his
He is very focus on Yvel. Has been watching his fights to understand what he does and prepare for that. That was his last saturday sparing and that he is ready already.
Says that that he will keep it standing to involve his boxing but he is well trained and ready to go anywhere for the fight.
The ufc wanted to get Yvel and since everyone was out injured or already had a fight they put chedule Yvel agianst him which surprised him but he never worries about his opponent but what he can do in the fight and worry about his will and fight and that like every fight he will give his all.
Says he does not think its fair that mir vs Carwin are fighting for the interim title that Big Nog was suppose to get his shot but since MMA does not follow the rankings, we have to go by what the UFC decides.
Should be a good fight against Mir and Carwin and thinks that it should happen the same with mir vs congo, if its standing Carwin has more chances but if it goes to the ground, Mir has more chances. And that he has no favorites (laughs). [/ QUOTE]

As preparation for the fight?
Were quite tough. I was doing the first phase of training with Roger (Minotauro) for his fight and soon after came to the heat of Bahia, here is very hot (laughs). We did all the training here, along with the team and Champions Northeast Jiu-Jitsu, who supported me this time.
What is your expectation for his fourth fight in the UFC?
It is an uphill struggle, I am very focused on Gilbert Yvel is a pretty tough guy. I've been watching his fights a lot, I want to understand a little of what he does best and prepare for it. I am well prepared. Today (Saturday) was my last sparring and I'm ready to give a good show for people and, God willing, out with the victory.
Do you think this fight will be all standing?
I believe this fight will grow up. As I always say, I like to fight on foot, I like to develop my boxing. I think effective fighting on foot and will not be different this time. We do not know how the fight will develop, but I'm prepared for anything. I trained a lot of falls, I wonder in any area.
You were scheduled to face the Gabriel "Gonzaga", but he was injured and replaced its opponent for Yvel, that neither had a contract with the UFC. Were you surprised?
I was surprised a little, was training to fight with Gonzaga, but when he had the problem, the UFC was with the big boys fight sick or marked. The UFC had been wanting to hire him, then placed against me. I was surprised, but my mind is to never care about my opponent, but what I do, I worry about my performance. Like any fight, I give up on me.
With Brock Lesnar away indefinitely, the UFC should create the interim belt in the race between Frank Mir and Shane Carwin. Do you think it fair?
I think it's fair, I think Rodrigo was in time to dispute the belt and it is fair getting it to play, but as the MMA does not follow a ranking, we have to move on as the decisions of the UFC.
How do you think this fight will be?
It will be a good fight, are two contenders, tops the class, and it is always good for us to analyze and have a better sense of the adversaries we face. It will be a great fight.
Do you have a bet?
It's kind of hard ... I think it will be the same thing against Frank Mir (Cheick) Kongo. If the fight is on foot, Carwin has more chances, but if the ground, the Mir has more chances. I'll be on the fence, I have no favorites (laughs).
