<p>Having gotten cut from the UFC after back-to-back losses in 2009, Vinny “Pezão” Magalhães filtered through a few smaller events before arriving at M-1 Global, where he settled in as the promotion’s light heavyweight champion. Making his return to the major league at UFC 152 on the 22nd of last month, the Jiu-Jitsu black belt tapped out Croatia’s Igor Porkrajac with an armbar 1:14 minutes into the second round. In an exclusive interview with GRACIEMAG.com, Vinny takes a look at the fight, explains what his next step in the UFC will be, discusses his training partner Chael Sonnen, and much more.</p>
<p><strong>GRACIEMAG.com: How would you classify your UFC return?</strong></p>
<p>VINNY MAGALHÃES: Everything went just as I’d expected it would. My coaches and I put together a good game plan and did a good job of studying my opponent. When I entered the octagon, at no point was I nervous. After all, I already knew what I had to do to win. The fight went in my favor the whole time. I didn’t run into any trouble at all. The only moment that was perhaps rough was when I lost that attempted armbar, because I could have ended the fight sooner.</p>
<p><strong>Describe that armbar in detail.</strong></p>
<p>When he took me down, I started working on a triangle as soon as we hit the canvas. However, as he was pressing me up against the fencing, I couldn’t find the room to sink the triangle. So I decided to transition to the armbar. I do that move a lot, especially when I’m pressed up against the cage.</p>
<p><strong>What was your training for Igor Pokrajac like?</strong></p>
<p>I did my training in group at Xtreme Couture but did the intensive part of my training with Mark Beecher, who’s my Thai boxing coach, and I also had the help of Vini Aieta, my Jiu-Jitsu teacher, closer to fight time. Vini was important in that he kept me calm when the fight went to the ground. After all, he’s coached me since I was 15. I have faith in his instructions.</p>
<p><strong>Do you maintain contact with Chael Sonnen?</strong></p>
<p>Yes, he gave me plenty of support throughout the entire week of the fight. He was concerned about my making weight, asked how my head was for the fight, and he totally encouraged me. We also spoke after the fight.</p>
<p><strong>You watched the main event of the evening. What did you think Vitor Belfort needed to do to tap out Jon Jones?</strong></p>
<p>Hard to say. It’s easy to point out mistakes from the sidelines, but only Vitor can say what was missing for him to finish. I myself, in my fight, made a technical mistake that cost me going another round. So I don’t feel I should judge or nitpick about what he might have done. Were I in his place, I’d probably have gone for the same type of spinning armbar I did in my fight, since it would break Jon Jones’s posture and I’d have more hip pressure. But like I said, it’s always a lot easier to have opinions when you’re on the outside.</p>
<p><strong>What’s your goal in the UFC now?</strong></p>
<p>To win more fights. That’s all I’m concerned about at the moment. My overall record isn’t the best, but at least I’ve got a good winning streak going. My UFC record’s still in the red [1w, 2l], so my primary goal is to change the numbers. I have another three fights on this contract. I hope to win them all; that way my UFC record will be 4w, 2l. After that I’ll look at loftier objectives. One fight I think would be interesting at the moment would be with Matt Hamill, since both of us are coming off wins, we’ve got similar records, plus our last fights were at the same UFC.</p>The post <a href="https://www.graciemag.com/vinny-explains-armbar-calls-for-hamill-and-absolves-belfort-talking-from-the-sidelines-is-easy/">Vinny explains armbar, calls for Hamill and absolves Belfort: “Talking from the sidelines is easy”</a> first appeared on <a href="https://www.graciemag.com">Graciemag</a>.]]></content:encoded>

<p>Após ser cortado do UFC por duas derrotas em 2009, Vinny Magalhães, o Pezão, passou por alguns eventos menores até chegar ao M-1 Global, e se tornar campeão da categoria meio-pesado. De volta ao UFC 152, no dia 22, o faixa-preta de Jiu-Jitsu finalizou o croata Igor Porkrajac com uma chave de braço a 1min14s do segundo round. Em entrevista exclusiva ao GRACIEMAG.com, o carioca Vinny analisou sua luta, contou sobre seu próximo passo dentro do Ultimate, falou sobre o parceiro Chael Sonnen e muito mais.</p>
<p><strong>GRACIEMAG: Como você destaca sua volta ao Ultimate?</strong></p>
<p>VINNY MAGALHÃES: Tudo foi exatamente como o esperado. Meus treinadores e eu traçamos uma estratégia boa para a luta, estudamos bem o meu adversário. Quando entrei no octógono, não tive nenhum momento de nervosismo, afinal já sabia o que precisava fazer para sair com a vitória. A luta correu ao meu favor o tempo todo, não tive nenhum momento ruim. O único momento ruim talvez tenha sido quando perdi a primeira tentativa de armlock, pois dava para terminar a luta mais cedo.</p>
<p><strong>Como foi o seu armlock, em detalhes?</strong></p>
<p>Quando ele me derrubou, já fui trabalhando o triângulo assim que atingimos a lona. Porém, como ele estava me pressionando contra a grade, eu não estava achando espaço para ajustar o triângulo. Decidi então fazer a transição para a chave de braço. Esse é um movimento que eu uso bastante, ainda mais quando pressionado contra a grade.</p>
<p><strong>Como foi seu treinamento para a luta contra Igor Pokrajac?</strong></p>
<p>Fiz meu treinamento em grupo na Xtreme Couture, porém a parte intensiva dos treinos fiz com o Mark Beecher, que é meu treinador de muay thai, e contei com a ajuda do Vini Aieta, que é meu professor de Jiu-Jitsu, já mais perto da luta. O Vini foi importante para me manter tranquilo quando a luta fosse pro chão, afinal ele me treina desde os 15 anos. Confio muito nas ordens dele.</p>
<p><strong>Você ainda mantém relações com Chael Sonnen?</strong></p>
<p>Sim, durante a semana toda da luta ele me deu muito apoio, se preocupou se eu estava controlando meu peso, perguntou como estava a minha cabeça para a luta e me deu o maior incentivo. Também nos falamos depois da luta.</p>
<p><strong>Você viu a luta principal da noite. O que acha que faltou para o Vitor Belfort finalizar Jon Jones?</strong></p>
<p>É difícil dizer. É fácil apontar erros estando de fora, mas só o Vitor pode dizer o que faltou para ele finalizar. Eu mesmo, na minha luta, cometi um erro técnico que me custou mais um round. Então não acho que eu deveria julgar ou apontar qualquer falha que ele talvez tenha cometido. No lugar dele, talvez eu tivesse ido para o mesmo tipo de armlock giratório que fiz na minha luta, pois ele quebraria a postura do Jon Jones e teria mais pressão no quadril. Mas como eu disse, opinar de fora sempre é mais fácil.</p>
<p><strong>Qual é o seu próximo objetivo dentro no UFC?</strong></p>
<p>Vencer mais lutas, só isso que me preocupa no momento. Meu cartel geral não é dos melhores, mas pelo menos estou numa sequência boa de vitórias. Meu cartel no UFC ainda é negativo (1v, 2d), por isso meu primeiro objetivo é mudar esses números. Tenho mais três lutas nesse contrato. Espero vencer todas, daí meu cartel no UFC será de 4v, 2d, a partir daí quero dar voos mais altos. Uma luta que acho que seria interessante no momento seria contra o Matt Hamill. Pois ambos estamos vindo de vitórias, nossos cartéis são similares e também pelo fato de termos lutado pela última vez no UFC.</p>The post <a href="https://www.graciemag.com/vinny-detalha-finalizacao-pede-matt-hamill-e-absolve-belfort-e-facil-apontar-erros-de-fora/">Vinny detalha armlock, pede Hamill e absolve Belfort: “É fácil falar de fora”</a> first appeared on <a href="https://www.graciemag.com">Graciemag</a>.]]></content:encoded>
