Brazilian grappling ace Sergio Moraes admits he didn’t want to fight a countryman at UFC 237, but he certainly isn’t going to hold back now that he must. “I personally would rather not face another Brazilian,” Moraes admitted to MMA Junkie in his native Portuguese. “But I did ask the UFC for a chance to be on the Rio card. We’re going to war.” Moraes (14-4-1 MMA, 8-3-1 UFC) meets fellow Brazilian Warlley Alves (12-3 MMA, 6-3 UFC) at Saturday’s UFC 237 event, which takes place at Jeunesse Arena in Rio de Janeiro. The preliminary bout streams on ESPN+ ahead of additional prelims on ESPN and a main card on pay-per-view. Related UFC 237: How to watch Namajunas vs.
