Quick read
Carlos Prates was warmly welcomed by fans in Perth, Australia during an open training session. The Brazilian received continuous support from the crowd throughout the session, suggesting he will not be fighting on entirely hostile territory. The atmosphere challenges the notion that Australia would be purely "enemy territory" for the visiting fighter. Despite being away from Brazil, Prates appears to have built a significant following in Perth ahead of his bout. The enthusiastic reception lasted throughout the entire training session without interruption.
