While an opponent has yet to be named for Paulo Filho, another fight may also show up on the card.
“The news wasn’t supposed to have leaked, but everyone knows we’re trying to bring Sakuraba over to face Paulão. We’ll have the answer by next week. We didn’t want to talk about it to avoid any frustration from the public, but we are really trying to bring him over and there’s a good chance of it,” says Amaury Bitetti.
“Another fight may also appear on the program. We’ll know soon,” says Fernando Miranda.
