"It’s all right, it’ll happen… I’m crazy to fight again. I’ve been preparing myself for a while now, I was just waiting for them to match me up with someone", says Cavalcante, relieved.

"I don’t undermine anyone. I’m preparing to do the worst fight of my life, especially since I’m coming from a loss", said, complimenting his opponent. "He’s a tough guy, complete, he moves his feet a lot and is a good wrestler".
He's also taking the time to prepare for the fact that Romero is a southpaw:...
"I don’t undermine anyone. I’m preparing to do the worst fight of my life, especially since I’m coming from a loss", said, complimenting his opponent. "He’s a tough guy, complete, he moves his feet a lot and is a good wrestler".
"He’s a lefty, so we have to pick the lefties of our team, like Anderson and Rogerio, and I’m getting used to it… I can’t wait to fight again".
Feijao lost his title to Dan Henderson in his last fight at the aptly-named Strikeforce: Feijao vs. Henderson in March, but he feels that with a win here, he's right back in contention:
"My biggest wish is to have a chance at the title again, independent of who I have to fight. After this fight, I want my title shot. I’m on the top 3 of the event, and I hope I have this chance".
Is Feijao right back in the title hunt with a win over a 4-0 prospect? Normally I'd say no, but the Strikeforce light heavyweight division isn't exactly stacked with stars. It's a definite possibility.
