‘Vai Cavalo’ details his training close to the fight, where he went five to six minute rounds and feels like Superman. His famed striking coach declares him ready to show he is the best heavyweight in the world before Werdum recounts a breakfast meeting where Cain Velasquez would not say hello to him. He also explains his prior statement that Velasquez was not a ‘true Mexican’ due to the fact that he was born in America.

Velasquez appears last, addressing Werdum’s jab at his heritage, noting that he is truly Mexican. The returning champion says in Spanish that he doesn’t want Velasquez to bad-mouth him and then try to be his friend, closing with the statement that hes ging to ‘whoop his ass’ on Saturday.
