"Not as much when I realized listen, he's ahead of me, he's up there in the rankings, he's someone I'm going to have to face to leapfrog him in the rankings. So at that point, just take it in and be ready to go again."
"He ended up taking Marvin's spot, but that's okay now, because I'm here to take what is mine. I suffered, I changed the way I do things, I changed the basics on it and now here I am, ready to go."
"I'm a dude that likes to shock people, like I did in my debut in the UFC. I got that spinning elbow. Also, maybe I have a new card in my deck."
Brunno Ferreira confronts Gregory "Robocop" Rodrigues in an uncommon rematch at UFC 326, despite Ferreira's previous knockout victory over Rodrigues in 2023. Ferreira initially felt surprised by the matchup but recognized it as necessary to advance in rankings, as Rodrigues currently sits at #13 while Ferreira ranks #15. Ferreira attributes part of his ranking disadvantage to a previous weight miss during his Marvin Vettori fight. He has addressed his weight-cutting issues and reports being only four pounds above fight weight as of media day. Ferreira demonstrates confidence through recent training videos and hints at new striking techniques, including a flying knee, while preparing to showcase improved performance after going the distance in his last bout.
