Leandro Vegas Machado Garry’s favorite fighter is not his father.
Ian Garry recently asked his 3-year-old son to name his favorite fighter. Leandro named his father’s former opponent, Carlos Prates.
“Imagine beating a man up for 23 and a half minutes and then leaving the fight. And your son’s favorite fighter is the other guy,” Garry responded in jest.
Garry and Prates headlined UFC Kansas City this past April. While Garry didn’t land much damage, he controlled Prates for most of the five rounds to earn a unanimous decision win.
