The key to getting better at his current age? Ferreira says it has to do with finally eating right. "My last loss was more about my diet. I think the way that I was being and trying to adapt that into me cutting the weight was too drastic. Trying to look full, but being weak at the same time. I think it took me a while to understand - took me a while to prepare my body."
I don't have to drastically cut weight [anymore]," he said. "Now I can prepare myself for the performance. Having more fuel, being more mentally prepared - because before I was just draining cutting weight. Now I can actually enjoy the camp."
That's why I don't feel much pressure [anymore]. Like 'I need to make weight', 'I need to do this'. Now I enjoy more," he said. "I feel more enjoyment in the fight. I love to fight, I always do... but now I feel more happy in the cage.
