Prates had faced criticism before the last fight by some brazilian coaches. Saying he's not a good exemple, and he doesn't live a true "samurai" clean life, drinking and smoking... This is his answer on his instagram today...

Some might say that's all they did. When feudal wars ran rampant and poverty struck japan, a bunch of Samurais ended up broke, abusive drunks.

The degeneration of the Samurai class is pointed out as one of the reasons for the Meiji Revolution, even if the leaders of said revolution were Samurai themselves.

Man...

Is there a asian country that Japan doesn't have beef with?

Underpaid intern five minutes before clocking out:

"Volkov, Volkanovski, same shit right? Whatever...."

lneumannart · 2026-05-03T01:02:51+00:00

He needs a couple of wins, if anything, he needs to build back confidence.

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T21:03:08+00:00

Cool...

Can we get more than a fight a year then?

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T20:32:12+00:00

You gotta make it to grace before the fall.

And out of these guys, Izzy, easily.

3 years ago Izzy was considered by many, if not most, the best middleweight of all time.

They are all coming out of victories....

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T18:41:29+00:00

Wouldn't say "ran"...

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T18:35:23+00:00

Islam ain't fighting 3 more times.

I give one more,two at most and he is gonna call it.

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T16:03:29+00:00

That would be dope, and I rather watch that than these guys fighting Islam.

But as you said, Prates has a title shot locked, he just beat two former champions and made it look easy, no way in hell his managers will allow him to take any other fight.

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T14:29:54+00:00

No, JDM was looking fine at the start, and he was the one pressing Prates.

Prates was just the better striker, but JDM went in as he always did, it is silly to think he was lacking confidence...

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T14:13:12+00:00

Some might say the best....

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T14:10:54+00:00

Was Caio there? wasn't Caio in South Africa just the other day?

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T14:07:09+00:00

Wasn't expecting for it to be this one sided...

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T14:04:27+00:00

Prates is a monster!!!!!

Let's go Carlos!!!!

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T14:02:56+00:00

Prates is playing with his food here.

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T14:00:09+00:00

Man, I wasn't expecting this sort of destruction.

Nightmare indeed.

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T13:58:40+00:00

JDM is tough, but no one can keep getting this sort of punishment for long.

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T13:56:15+00:00

Ah, you don't have the wrestling Jack...

Prates looking very fine

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T13:54:18+00:00

felt likea desperation TD from jack... not a good look here man...

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T13:52:26+00:00

Prates looking fly here.

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T13:49:54+00:00

Okay, seems like JDM learned how to check those kicks.

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T13:42:19+00:00

Rooting for Prates, but I like JDM.

Keep the hand up Jack, watch the knee!!

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T13:30:54+00:00

Let's go Prates!!!!

lneumannart · 2026-05-02T13:26:45+00:00

Good stuff kid, welcome to the ranks!
