2 Brazilians facing each other in Uruguay, nothing wrong with that but ¿Is this going to be the main event of that card? Cause if it is, ¿Wouldn't this fight be better off & sell better in Brazil(where both fighters are from)?

Popo was pretty good.

Oliveira wins when Freitas quits on his stool.

Freitas?....He's still around?...

I thought he was dead. Now it turns out he's a "state legislature" in Brazil. He's either now a law-making branch of government in Brazil or the writer meant to say "state legislator" and he's a politician. Either way, he shouldn't be fighting any more and definitely not at junior middleweight.
