"I always say in every fight, I'm a different fighter than everyone, that all my opponents face until they face me. A lot of times, I feel like guys can't trade with me. They can't really prepare for me unless they've been in there with me before," he told the promotion.

Fight fans tuning in from North America with an active Amazon Prime Video subscription can catch the entire card live in U.S. primetime for free.
