The man behind Xande Ribeiro’s Muay Thai performance, Artur Mariano is more than satisfied with his pupil’s fight at Sengoku, debuting in MMA with a third round knockout. “What he had best was the high kicks and knees. We saw that he had some difficulties to put the Japanese down, but he did well stand up. His timing isn’t perfect yet, but he’s just starting and did very well”, celebrates Mariano, who wasn’t surprised with the knockout victory. “I won’t say that it was a surprise. He did well on the clinch and used the knees very well. I’m certain that he realized that he has to improve his stand up game and I know he’ll do it”, said the Muay Thai black belt.
