Eduarda Moura ready to dominate Denise Gomes at UFC Louisville
Eduarda Moura, a rising UFC star, is gearing up for her upcoming fight against Denise Gomes at UFC Louisville. Despite missing weight in her last two bouts, Moura is determined to put on a show and secure a victory on Saturday night.
Moura, who came in a half-pound over the strawweight limit, has acknowledged her weight issues and plans to address them with a doctor post-fight. However, her main focus remains on her upcoming bout with Gomes, whom she aims to defeat decisively.
“I will run through her like a car, like a tractor,” Moura confidently stated. “I’m going all-in. I’m going there to end this fight decisively, like I’ve done all my fights. It’s what people like to watch.”
With a strong track record of finishing fights, Moura is eager to continue that trend against Gomes. She emphasized the importance of seeking stoppages to avoid any controversial decisions by judges, citing recent UFC fights as examples.
Recognizing Gomes’ striking abilities, Moura remains unfazed and believes in her own skills. She expressed confidence in her evolving striking game and heavy hands, ready to showcase them in the upcoming showdown.
Looking ahead, Moura mentioned her preference not to share a card with her teammate Jailton Almeida again, as the team focuses on one athlete at a time. Additionally, she clarified her intentions to gradually work her way up to facing ranked opponents, starting with the top 15 before progressing further.
As she prepares for her second UFC fight, Moura exudes confidence and determination to take on any challenge that comes her way. With her sights set on climbing the rankings, she is ready to prove her worth in the octagon and make a mark in the strawweight division.
