MMA Junkie<\/a>. \u201cI planned on maybe the end of the year, maybe next year, but you can\u2019t really say no in these situations. It\u2019s a good fight. It\u2019s a tough kid. They\u2019ve given me two months to prepare. I didn\u2019t have many injuries. My toe was a little banged up, and everything else was pretty good.<\/p>\n\u201cI healed up pretty quick, and I\u2019ve been training non-stop, so there\u2019s really no reason for me to say no,” Moutinho continued. “If I start saying no now, who knows what they give me next time? I\u2019m just ready to go out there, have a good camp and show everybody that I know how to move my head. I\u2019m not just a punching bag.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI gotta win fights first,\u201d Moutinho said. \u201cThat\u2019s the most important part. Get these wins and show everybody I\u2019m worth more than just what they saw the last fight. I\u2019m glad everybody enjoyed the last fight, everybody loved it, but it still hurts me. I can\u2019t even watch it anymore. I watched it a couple of times, and it was too much. I don\u2019t want to be known as the guy who just takes ass whoopings. I\u2019m a fighter. I\u2019ve been fighting for a very long time. I put on shows, and y\u2019all are gonna see it.\u201d<\/p>\n
