Thalisson Teixeira spoke about how his training went for the match against Derrick Lewis.
“This was the first camp where I trained with real heavyweights. Before that, I had to work with welterweights and middleweights. I trained a lot with the Brazilian national boxing team — I think this will be a serious advantage for me. The guys there are much faster than MMA fighters. All this gave me confidence in myself,” — MMA Junkie quotes Teixeira.
