UFC 319: Carlos Prates Ready to Stop Worrying About Bonuses, Focus on Wins
Briefly

Carlos Prates and Geoff Neal's fight at UFC 319 was rescheduled due to Neal's injury earlier in the year. Prates previously faced Ian Machado Garry, losing a decision but gaining valuable experience. Prates emphasizes the importance of focusing on winning over entertaining. He notes that small mistakes can greatly impact the fight's outcome. Neal has claimed to prepare for a quick fight, which Prates questions, suggesting that believing one can finish quickly doesn't guarantee success. A win could position Prates back in the title conversation.
I think it's the fight that makes sense. We should have fought before, but Geoff got injured and then I fought Ian Garry.
Now, I think the fight makes sense. It's time to stop thinking about only bonuses, like knocking people out, and just focus on getting the win.
Small mistakes can change the end of the fight. I know a lot of people like to say something to make the thing become real.
After winning against Geoff now, it's going to make a life in the title hunt.
