“I’m really happy. I prepared for a 15-minute war. I know it’s my first time winning by decision, but however the victory comes to me – a knockout, a submission or a decision – I will take it.”
Lisboa on an important win
“This victory is special to me. Even though it was a decision, I had a very difficult camp with a lot of adversities. I had injuries to overcome. It wasn’t a smooth camp. I had to battle through a lot, but I made it here. I’m still fighting.”
