In one week Bitetti Combat changes its main event for the second time. After revealing that Thales Leites would replace Paulo Filho in the fight against Yuki Sasaki, the promoters now confirm that the former Pride fighter is back to fight the Japanese.

“Sasaki said he’d only fight against Paulo. Knowing that, Paulo said that he wants to fight now. He’s going to a brawl,” Bitetti confirmed. And Leites, a former UFC title contender, will also fight in the card, still without opponent revealed. Stay tuned!
