Carlos Prates receives warm reception from Perth crowd at open workout

Carlos Prates was warmly welcomed by fans at an open workout in Perth, Australia, with the crowd cheering continuously throughout his session. The enthusiastic Brazilian support in what might be considered hostile territory for the opponent of Australian Jack Madalena raises questions about whether Perth can truly be called enemy territory for Prates. The atmosphere suggests Prates will have significant fan backing despite fighting in his opponent's home country. Photos from the event were captured by CrashMMA.
