“I’m very excited for this! This is the kind of match we work hard for, you know? I’ve been hearing about Fellipe since I was a colored belt. So if I have the chance to face him today, it means I’m reaching my goals and that I’m among the best athletes. That’s why it’s a pleasure and not pressure! I truly believe I can win this tournament. The best should fight the best,” Torres told VF Comunica.
