Thales Leites (14-3) will look to move back into the win column against Dean Lister on Dec. 4 in Edmonton, Canada in the main event of Maximum Fighting Championships “MFC 23: Unstoppable“.

Leites talked to Tatame.com about his training and the middleweight is “training as if it were the most important fight in my life.”

“The preparation is very good, the training are great. I’m training Jiu-Jitsu, emphasizing the striking, training here and there”, Leites said, ready for a great fight against Lister.

“The expectation will be always good, even more now that I’m coming from two defeats, it’s a new start to me, actually. New event, new house… I’m training as if it were the most important fight of my life”, guarantees, preparing his game for a complete opponent. “I think that he may want to exchange a little bit, to surprise me. But, actually, both essences are Jiu-Jitsu, I think that this fight might go to the ground anyway, which is good for both of us”.
