Patricio Freire reveals biggest change that helped him win rematch over A.J. McKee

Still undefeated in rematches (second fights), Patricio Freire reclaimed the Bellator featherweight belt last Friday.

At Bellator 277, ‘Pitbull’ showed a more composed version of himself and defeated A.J. McKee via unanimous decision after being choked unconscious by the ‘Mercenary’ in their first encounter.

In an interview with Super Lutas’ YouTube channel, the Brazilian explained the adjustments he made for the second outing. Most of them, Pitbull says, had more to do with learning how to perform better while in hostile territory.

“For sure, the biggest change was my behavior in the cage,” Freirea said.
