Gharibi didn’t reveal the name of his opponent but it is believed that it could be 29-year-old Romario dos Santos Alves, who is also known as the Brazilian Hulk.
Meanwhile, UFC star Brian Ortega has said that he would smash “Iranian Hulk” Sajad Gharibi if they clashed in the Octagon.
“I would just gas him out, p*** him off,” Ortega told TMZ Sports.
“Of course, you’re gonna see me just get mauled up like a damn little chihuahua in the beginning. But just when I ride that wave out, it’s a done deal man. He’ll gas out and he’ll be mine.”
