After the dismissal of Roger gracie, in July, the most traditional MMA family was left without a representative in the UFC. However, an old acquaintance promises to return to the organization in 2013. Veteran Renzo Gracie revealed that he intends to compete in 'three or four months'.
Away from competition since April 2010, when he was knocked out by Matt hugs At UFC 112, Renzo told the MMA Hour program that he intends to compete again at the age of 47. “I'm trying to get in shape in three or four months and from then on I'll be ready to find a date for my return”, said Renzo, who doesn't hide his frustration at being out of action.
“Believe me, there is nothing I want more than to be back in a cage and fight again. I'm getting tired and frustrated with this wait and I'm going to put myself in some fight and train all day and do what I love, which is train and fight. I will definitely be fighting again. I’ve already started training and I’m feeling really good”, he added.
Despite not revealing in the statement that the fight will be in the UFC, Gracie, who has a record of 13 wins, one draw and seven losses, still has a contract in force with Ultimate.
