FORTALEZA, Brazil – After downing four different opponents, there is no doubt that William Macario (6-0 MMA, 0-0 UFC) deserves to be in the finals of “The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil 2.” But does Leonardo Santos (11-3 MMA, 0-0 UFC)? “Patolino” says there is no doubt. “I definitely think so,” Macario told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) through an interpreter. “I think he definitely deserves to be on the finale because he had a great fight with Santiago Ponzinibbio . It was a fight that could have been for either one of them.” That fight took place in the semifinal round of “TUF: Brazil 2,” with Ponzinibbio earning a hard-fought unanimous decision. However, he injured his hand in the contest and was unable to recover in time for the tournament final, which takes place Saturday at UFC on FUEL TV 10 at Paulo Sarasate Arena in Fortaleza, Brazil. That allowed Santos to step back in the tournament as a replacement finalist, and he now meets Macario in the final round. Meanwhile, Macario earned three stoppage wins during his four “TUF: Brazil” victories
