Magalhaes added:
Not bad for someone who’s only grappling Mondays during mma practice. Not the greatest performance. But it’s a win what they call it, right?
@gordonlovesjiujitsu is still my hero of this new generation. He knows it, I’ve told him this many times over the last couple years since I’ve met him. I wish nothing but the best to this guy. Now it’s time to focus on nothing but in my fight on June 21st for @pflmma, where I’m going after $1mi dollars!!! #mma #pflmma
