”I expect a very hard fight. We both have our game plans and I think it will favor me,” Berättade Henderson. ”Analyzing our styles, we know he’s going to bring the fight and we have an answer for everything he throws. Thiago is very good at Muay Thai, but he is predictable. He always does that three-punch combination that ends with a leg kick. We know he will do that and it’s up to me keep my balance and not let him execute that plan. Thiago’s game is very tradition and hard to find holes in, if I had to say something, it would be that he is a little predictable when countering. If hit him in a certain way, I know how he will hit me back.”
Alves har tidigare sagt att han kommer vinna på KO över Henderson i den tredje ronden och Henderson menar att Alves har rätt till att tro det, men att Henderson i slutändan kommer att vinna matchen.
”That’s his opinion. We’re all entitled to one, but I will have to disagree. All I know is that I’ll have my hand raised in the end. I suck at predicting how a fight will end, I always get it wrong. All I can predict is that I will win. At least I got this prediction right a lot more than wrong in my career.”
