Deiveson Figueiredo reveals health problems he had before UFC Des Moines

UFC bantamweight star Deiveson Figueiredo has revealed that he was experiencing some health problems prior to UFC Des Moines.

It’s safe to say that Deiveson Figueiredo didn’t have a great night on Saturday. He went head to head with Cory Sandhagen in the main event of UFC Des Moines and in addition to losing, he also suffered a nasty knee injury that looks like it’s set to keep him out of action for a fair amount of time.

Despite that, the Brazilian has been resilient in defeat. He is still hungry to prove that he’s one of the best bantamweight on the planet, and if we know Deiveson Figueiredo, he’ll be putting everything he has into his recovery.
