One of the leaders and coaches of the American Top Team, one of the biggest MMA teams in the world, which concentrates a legion of Brazilians in the United States, Conan Silveira is anxious for July 25th. In the second edition of "Shine Fights - ATT vs. The World", the team will have many athletes in action in the octagon, as Roan Jucão, Luiz Firmino and Micah Miller, and the coach is excited, especially after winning six victories in the last weekend.
"I'm suspect to say, even because, in a weekend that the team as ATT won six victories, not mentioning (Gleison) Tibau’s robbed loss, it would be 7X0... I'm not saying that will be the same, but the risk of happening the same result is big", pronounces the red and black belt of Jiu-Jistu, who saw his athletes winning in events such as Bellator, where the Cuban Hector Lombard earned the middleweight GP and took the belt for American Top Team.
