Bitetti Combat: Paulo Filho in, Pedro Rizzo out of the fifth event

1252702243

"Paulo Filho is confirmed. He couldn’t fight in Japan recently and was calling me everyday willing to fight at Bitetti Combat. He has been training very hard to erase any bad impression. His opponent will be a Japanese fighter who still has to be confirmed. It seems a foreign website stated that Jeff Monson won’t fight and some people jumped in the bandwagon. Monson is very confirmed. It’s going to be a great show and we’ll make history again." 

Pedro Rizzo was pulled out the fifth edition of Bitetti Combat due tendinitis on his elbow but "The Rock" is expected to fight in the next event announced to Brasília, capital of Brazil, against Valentin Overeem, opponent previously set to the Brazilian veteran. Amaury contradicts the Alabama Pride promotion that announced Jeff Monson and Travis Fulton to headline its card. "The Snowman" is very confirmed to Bitetti Combat. Stay tuned for more information.
