Prates commented on the win over Magny

"I feel great about myself. It's been an unforgettable year for me and my career. I had four fights in ten months, getting bonuses in three of them. I just can't put into words my emotions and describe how happy I am.

What's next for my career? I'd like to perform in Australia, where my daughter lives, I'd like to visit her at the same time. Maybe it's too much to ask, but I would like to fight Jack Della Maddalena. He's still above me in the rankings, but I know we'd make a great fight. And I'd like to fight Jeff Neal too."
