After beating Michael Bisping at UFC 110 in Australia, it wasn’t long before Wanderlei found out his next opponent would be Japan’s Yoshihiro Akiyama. The fight is set for Ultimate Fighting Championship on July 3 in Las Vegas, the same event in which Brock Lesnar makes his Octagon return against Shane Carwin.
Alongside trainer Rafael Cordeiro and fighter Vitor Viana, in the video below, Wand has a sparring session and, in a few words, sums up his spirit going into the fight: “I’m always ready and I feel good.”
