Drakkar Klose Is Tuning Out The Noise

Drakkar Klose is a patient man. And if he extends his current winning streak to four by beating Joaquim Silva in Rio de Janeiro on Saturday, he’s expecting that patience to pay off with a Top 15 ranking in the lightweight division and the big fights he’s been chasing.

“I think my performances speak for themselves,” said Klose. “I don't have boring fights, and I always go out there and leave it all on the line. And as long as I just keep getting wins, I think everything else will speak for itself.”
