With four victories on his last fights at UFC, Thales Leites confirmed the rumors of his next fight on the event. “I didn’t signed the contract yet, but it’s confirmed”, said the Nova União athlete, that faces the BJJ black belt Dean Lister at UFC Fight Night 15. “It’s a tough fight, he’s a dangerous guy, but I’ll be prepared for everything. I know he will try to put me down and everything can happen, but I’m with a good game stand up and it’s the perfect fight for it”, told Thales, that watched some of Lister’s fights on the event. “He’s a dangerous guy on the ground, tries to put you down, but doesn’t do it very well, but he’s dangerous if he tries to catch your feet you put you on the triangle position, but that’s good for me, I’m not worried about it”, guaranteed Thales, that faces Lister at September 17th.
