The ugly spat- The Brazilian god of war has proved his dominance in UFC’s flyweight division. The knockout artist suffered an injury and is out for a while healing it. However, the injury has toppled his relationship with his manager. He had parted away with his manager Wallid Ismail and has joined with Urijah Faber of American Sports & Esports management firm Vaynersports.
Figueiredo was upset with UFC holding an interim title match between Kai Kara-France vs Brandon Moreno at UFC 277. Figueiredo has accused Wallid Ismail of not letting him know about the match’s occurrence beforehand.
  However, Ismail had cleared out the air on Twitter and had cursed the flyweight champion as “ungrateful pig”

Wallid Ismail said, “From the beginning I didn’t want to speak out so as not to expose Deiveson,” “I had informed Deiveson that the UFC would [create] the interim belt if he couldn’t fight until July. The UFC was aware that he was injured. I have conversations with matchmakers informing [them] about the injury. He made a statement in the press saying that he would only like to fight Kai Kara France in October, although I asked him to fight Brandon Moreno again, as this would be the best fight for his career.

“He wants to look for someone to blame for his wrong decisions, I’m just speaking out because, although he apologized to me for lying that he didn’t know about the interim belt, now he’s back to lying, that I hadn’t warned the UFC about his injury. That’s a lack of character.”

“This vagabond has become a shameless bastard,” he added. “First he lied saying that I hadn’t warned him about the interim belt (the bastard told me he didn’t care). The bastard apologized to me for lying, now he’s telling another lie. You’re very naughty, Deiveson. I told the UFC that he was injured and could only fight in October. This bastard asked me to say that.”
