Two years have passed since Paulo Filho’s last fight in Pride. After submitting Kazuo Misaki at Pride Bushido 13, the black belt signed contract with WEC, where he couldn’t repeat the good performances of the Japanese ring and, after two victories and the first defeat in his career, he will return to Japanese events. On May 26th, Paulão will fight again, and at the light heavyweight division. "Paulão will fight at Dream 9, in the same event that (Ronaldo) ‘Jacaré’. He’s already training with Jacaré and everything will be all right", said his coach, Josuel Distak, exclusively to TATAME.com.
