First time images last, so I will make sure to it that there will be a good, clean and entertaining fight. Mixed Martial Arts is like magic. It will change an individual to his best self and this is exactly what martial arts had done to my life. It is not just about learning to box, kick and grapple, but also about using your wisdom to define your future and to learn to control yourself.” said Cristiano.
