Bellator MMA lightweight contender Patricky “Pitbull” Freire aims to close out 2019 by winning the eight-man RIZIN FF Grand Prix, but he has bigger goals in mind for 2020.
While Patricky is no stranger to Bellator’s tournaments, this is a different experience given he’ll have to win twice on New Year’s Eve to prevail in the RIZIN GP. The Brazilian knockout artist spoke to Bloody Elbow about some of the differences between his regular camp prep and how he’s handling the Grand Prix.
“The biggest change was to prepare and spar with the idea of two fights in one day,” Freire said.
