“Dana was interested in seeing me work for the UFC, finding new talent and also in relationships with athletes, which is something I already do. I accepted immediately, but I will continue training. I didn’t say anything about retiring”, said the 39-year-old fighter, in an interview with the “Combate” channel. “The fight happened a little while ago and I’ll see what I’m going to do.”
Minotauro also expressed his long-standing desire to have his farewell fight against Frank mir, who has already defeated him twice in the past. Asked about the subject, the Brazilian replied: “This is something I would love to do before I retire,” he said.
