Current Bellator featherweight and lightweight champion Patricio Freire is looking forward to his next 145-pound title defense at Bellator 252.
Paired up against Pedro Carvalho for a bout which also serves as the division’s grand prix’s quarterfinals, ‘Pitbull’ does sing his opponent’s praises, but still believes he is just a tad more skilled to lose his belt to the Portuguese fighter.
In an interview with Combate, Freire pointed out how he believes to be more well-rounded than Carvalho. In fact, Freire wants to knock out Pedro in order to even his record, which currently has 11 wins by submission and 10 by KO.
