Cleiton has allegedly talked about being interested in a fight with Felipe. In response, the latter said, “Let me send a message to this guy.”

“Cleiton ‘Predator,’ as soon as I’m done with this fight, you’re the guy I’m looking to fight,” Felipe said. “I know this is my first fight in the event but I have a lot of belief in my own potential to win at ‘Brave 26.’ I want to be among the top fighters at Brave CF and sooner or later, your head will roll.”

Moreover, Felipe gave a message to his “Brave 26” opponent. The Brazilian MMA fighter said, “I’d like to thank Dumar for taking the fight on short notice but I’m more than ready and I’m confident my hand will be raised.”
