I don\u2019t make preparation with him. Like I don\u2019t train with him. If he need help, he\u2019s like my brother, you know. He\u2019s very kind guy, very good guy. I\u2019m always there to help him. After my fight, I\u2019m going easy there\u2026 But I tell you something, man. This guy is legit, man. This guy is really, really there.

He have a heart of a lion and I really; I was like surprised. Really surprised to see like a guy like him. He spar with me then with my friend and I know how strong my friends work. He wrestle, he make takedowns. He make him tired. He stand up, man. He; brother, this guy don\u2019t broke, man.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe don\u2019t broke, man. He\u2019s going always forward and I\u2019m sure that he going to make this fight, man. Gamrot was like a very tough fight but even this fight he don\u2019t look that bad. But man, Gamrot is also, you know. like he\u2019s fighting against Charles Oliveira. He\u2019s also legit, man. You saw how he was taking Charles Oliveira down in seconds you know. But top five, top ten is really, really hardened.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ludovit Klein has a massive matchup looming in the coming days at UFC 321, and a surging Oktagon&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":234082,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[570],"tags":[64,63,786,140555,140556,785,85,787,90269],"class_list":{"0":"post-234081","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mma","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-fighting","11":"tag-ludovit-klein","12":"tag-mateusz-rebecki","13":"tag-mma","14":"tag-sports","15":"tag-ufc","16":"tag-ufc-321"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/234081","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=234081"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/234081\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/234082"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=234081"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=234081"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=234081"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
