Following a successful run in events across Europe, going undefeated with seven submissions and a knockout, Brazil’s Carlos Eduardo “Tá Danado” Rocha prepares for his Ultimate Fighting Championship debut against Kris McCray this Saturday in Germany.

For the encounter, the Jiu-Jitsu black belt relied on the help of coach Roberto Gordo, who will be in the fighter’s corner and sent in news to GRACIEMAG.com:

“I’m here with Eduardo Tá Danado. He just weighed in and is ready to debut on the right foot in UFC. He’s from Dacio Lira team in Ceará, and he trained with me for the last two months,” says Gordo.

Tá Danado should have the local crowd on his side, as he has been living in Germany for some time. Regardless, the fighter is confident.

“He’s a tough opponent, but we already have a strategy laid out to win, and I expect to finish him. I’ve never been in such great shape, I’m 110%,” warns the fighter.

Depois do sucesso em eventos na Europa, invicto em oito lutas com sete finalizações e um nocaute, o brasileiro Carlos Eduardo Rocha, o Tá Danado, se prepara para encarar Kris McCray na estreia pelo Ultimate Fighting, neste sábado, na Alemanha.

Para o desafio, o faixa-preta de Jiu-Jitsu contou com a ajuda do treinador Roberto Gordo, que está ao lado do lutador na Alemanha e mandou notícias ao GRACIEMAG.com:

“Estou aqui com o Eduardo Tá Danado, ele acabou de se pesar e está pronto para estrear com o pé direito no UFC. Ele vem da equipe Dacio Lira, no Ceará, e fez os treinamentos para essa luta comigo por dois meses”, diz Gordo.

Tá Danado deve ter o apoio local, já que mora na Alemanha há bastante tempo. Independentemente disso, o lutador está confiante.

“O adversário é duro, mas já temos a estratégia traçada para ganhar e a expectativa é de finalizar. Nunca estive tão bem, estou 110%”, avisa o lutador.
