– UFC Fight Night 105’s Reginaldo Vieira recently spoke with mmajunkie.com, here are the highlights…

On Finding Success at Age 34: “There are several fighters who’ve achieved success later in life like Randy Couture and Bernard Hopkins. I see them as an inspiration. I think it’s important to always train, so our performance doesn’t suffer. I see myself as one of those guys who can go far, despite an advanced age for the sport.”

On Fighting Aiemann Zahabi: “I watched some of his fight videos. Every day I study his techniques,” Vieira said. “I don’t know how the fight will play out. I’m studying him, and without a doubt, he’s studying me too. But all fighters change up their game. No one is stupid. He seems like a complete fighter with great technical qualities. He’s tough. He does as well on the feet as on the mat.”
