After a few weeks of speculation, the fighter's manager, Marcelo Brigadeiro, José Maria “Sem Chance” confirmed that the athlete is no longer part of the Ultimate squad. José Maria only had two fights in the organization and was defeated on both occasions. According to Marcelo, “No Chance” is now analyzing his performance in the octagon and studying other proposals.
“Now it’s time to sit down and analyze other opportunities. Let's analyze what he should have done to win in the UFC and move on. Even without winning in the UFC, “Sem Chance” did what we expected of him, being aggressive and putting on good fights. But when you're in a tournament as big as the UFC, the pressure is very high and sometimes you don't take the necessary precautions, and end up not winning”, said the agent, in an interview with the “MMA Fighting” website.
At 32 years old, José Maria “Sem Chance” Tomé has a record of 33 wins, five losses and two unsuccessful fights. Known for his aggressive style, the Ceará native won more than 80% of his victories by knockout or submission. Before working in the UFC, where he was defeated by John Lineker and Dustin Ortiz, “Sem Chance” had an undefeated streak of 17 fights.
