LAS VEGAS – Vitor Petrino brushed off Anton Turkalj’s antics leading up to UFC Fight Night 221.
Turkalj (8-2 MMA, 0-2 UFC) called Petrino easy money and faked him out in their weigh-ins faceoff. However, Turkalj wasn’t able to back up his actions, losing a Fight of the Night battle to Petrino (8-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC) this past Saturday at The Theater at Virgin Hotels in Las Vegas.
But the undefeated Brazilian finisher, whose main goal is to put on a show, says he was unaffected by the build-up during the fight.
