However, Fabricio Andrade remains confident of his chances against the American Top Team standout. During the virtual presser, he explained that it's not just about power, it's also about movement and speed:

"I’ve been used to fighting with strikers in kickboxing and Muay Thai. I’ve fought a lot of good boxers, I have trained with good boxers. So I know my capacity and besides, with his power, we got so many things between that. It’s not just about having power, it’s being able to connect and to be able to move and do other stuff so it doesn’t worry me at all."
