Grasso vs Araujo – What have you heard?
Viviane Araujo: “A world title is our goal.
“I already dreamed of fighting for the UFC belt, becoming champion and making history even before I entered the UFC, so I think I’ll be even closer to a title fight after this win over Alexa Grasso.
“The top of the division is a bit packed, but I’m on my way up and it will change things up. I believe that two more wins will put me in a position to challenge for the belt.
“We’ve done a pretty solid work already, but hearing about the UFC main event, then it’s a bit different.
“I was starting my career [in 2016]I had an extensive career in jiu jitsu and my coach suggested that I add a psychologist to my team. [to my routine]Because MMA was becoming more professional every day, people were always looking for ways to improve the cage.
“It has made a huge difference in my life, not only in MMA.”
