“In a perfect world, I would like to have a fight on my return that would lead to a title shot. That's still my dream.

He had three fights in the UFC against no one, and he didn't even do that well in them. He has been challenging me for a long time, and at first I didn't respond because it would be giving him what he wanted. He wants to promote himself. But he overreacted, and he's putting me against the wall. Now I really want to hit him in the face, even more so when I get paid for it. I think I'm going to call the UFC to make some money and beat him,” he concluded.
