Enjoying the Process
Rodrigues is glad to prove to himself that he is a different
fighter since the first meeting with Rodrigues. The 34-year-old
explains that he more patient and enjoys his time inside the
Octagon more.
“I just proved to myself I’m a different fighter since then,”
Rodrigues said in a post fight interview with the UFC. “… My
patience, I was enjoying the fight, took my time. I love being
inside the Octagon. When the doors lock and it’s just me and the
other guy and I have 15 minutes to play and do what I love to do,
what I choose to do. I started enjoying more. For sure I would have
liked to fight a little bit longer but I’m glad the hand connected,
it was perfect and clean. I think it’s patience and I’m enjoying a
little bit more.”
Rodrigues is 6-1 since his loss to Ferreira and is currently riding
a three-fight winning streak. Meanwhile, Ferreira has gone 5-3
since his first meeting with Rodrigues and saw a three-fight
winning streak snapped with the loss at UFC 326.
“I’m a different fighter.”
