Carlos Prates Says Brazilian Fighters Have a Different Street Code Than Their American and Caucasian Rivals

Carlos Prates argued that Brazilian fighters operate by a stricter code of personal conduct than their American or Caucasian counterparts, shaped by a harder upbringing on the street. He criticised the trash-talk tactics of fighters such as Khamzat Chimaev, citing Chimaev's comments about Sean Strickland's father as crossing a line. Prates also took aim at Colby Covington for remarks directed at Ian Garry's wife, saying such language would have severe real-world consequences where he comes from.
