I helgen kommer Magnus ”Jycken” Cedenblad att gå sin första match på nästan två när han möter sydafrikanske Garreth McLellan under UFC Fight Night 87 i Rotterdam.
Cedenblad är säker på att han kommer att gå segrande ur matchen. McLellan anser dock att svensken har för stort självförtroende och planerar en stor överraskning för honom.
Det här berättar McLellan via ”MMAJunkie”:

(South Africa is) a small country, we haven’t had a lot of exposure, and I think people are going to dismiss us. That’s fine with me. I don’t mind being the underdog, and I don’t mind coming out of the dark. That makes me even more dangerous, and if you think I don’t have the skill set, then you’re in for a very big surprise.
(It’s) a long time to be out of the cage; it definitely brings in that octagon rust. It’s something that’s very real. It’s not a myth. He’s got to deal with those kind of things.
He’s got the confidence in that he’s won fights in the UFC. He knows how to win in there, so that makes him even more dangerous.
If you go back at my record, I only have two decisions. The rest of them have been finishes. I know how to finish, that’s part of my game, and I’m always looking for that.
If you think it’s going to be an easy night and you’re just going to come steamroll over me, I’ve got another thing coming for you. I often say a lot of people don’t realize I’m not like anybody anybody’s ever fought. I bring a different dynamic. I know how to find the win and look for things and open holes.
