Carlo Prater

ALLENAMENTO: Corsa verson una cascata vicino a casa mia al mattino. Mi alleno a mezzogiorno circa di ogni giorno nella lotta libera e nello sparring. Pesi e condizionamento fisico al pomeriggio. Jiu-Jitsu o lotta alla sera.

Quando e perché hai iniziato ad allenarti per combattere?
Ho iniziato ad allenarmi di MMA circa nel 2000 quando mi sono diplomato alle scuole superiori. Ero concentrato e sapevo già che avrei finito per combattere da professionista.

Quali titoli e riconoscimenti hai ottenuto?
cintura nera di BJJ. cintura nera di Luta Livre. FFC Welterweight champion.PFC Lightweight Champion. Capital Fight Lightweight champion.

Hai qualche eroe?
I miei eroi sono i miei genitori. Hanno sempre provato ad allevare me e mia sorella al meglio delle loro possibilità. Nelle MMA potrebbe essere Yves Edwards; provo ad emularlo.

Cosa significa per te combattere in UFC? Combattere in UFC è il mio sogno professionale che diventa realtà.

Sei andato al college?  Sono andato un po' al college ma non riuscivo a conciliarlo con il fighting. Ho intenzione di tornare a scuola per completare i miei studi in cinetica.

Quale era il tuo lavoro prima di combattere?
Alcuni lavori casuali e bizzarri, tutto dalle costruzioni, al buttafuori alla security, ai fast food.

Risultati nelle competizioni dilettantistiche? Ho avuto molto successo nel submission wrestling e sono stato campione brasiliano di Luta Livre nel 2000 nella categoria 75kg.

Risultati nelle competizioni professionistiche? Ho raggiunto numerosi obiettivi. Ho combattuto per quasi ogni principale organizzazione.

Tecniche preferite di grappling: Soffocamenti

Tecniche preferite di striking: Ginocchiate
