First Brazilian in action on the main card of the UFC Nashville, this Saturday (12), Victor Petrino did not disappoint. Debuting in the heavyweight category (up to 120,2 kg), the athlete from Minas Gerais took no notice of austen lane and, with great skill on the ground, he finished the former American football player with a katagatame in the final stretch of the first round.

As a result, Victor Petrino recovers from a two-fight losing streak in the light heavyweight division (up to 93 kg) and makes a strong debut in the new category. The Brazilian became the first fighter to submit austen lane, which, in turn, is his second consecutive defeat and his fourth in his last five fights.
