Quick read
Carlos Prates received an unexpectedly warm welcome from Australian fans at his open training session in Perth ahead of his UFC bout. The Brazilian fighter was greeted with continuous support from the crowd, who did not fall silent throughout the entire session. The enthusiastic reception raises questions about whether Perth can truly be considered "hostile territory" for Prates, as local fans demonstrated strong support for the visiting fighter. The open workouts are part of UFC Perth fight week activities. Photos from the session captured by CrashMMA showed the positive atmosphere. The warm reception contrasts with typical expectations for fighters competing away from home.
