Gegard Mousasi radade under helgen upp sin tredje seger, då han slog ut Vitor Belfort under UFC 204 i Manchester. Mousasi har nu vunnit fyra av sina fem senaste matcher, där den enda förlusten tillkommit mot Uriah Hall. Gegard hade en hel del att säga under presskonferensen efter matchen, då han bland annats kritiserade fansen och hävdade att TKO-förlusten mot Hall enbart var en lyckoträff.
Här kan ni läsa vad Mousasi hade att säga, via ”MMAJunkie”:
I feel I have the best standup in the middleweight division. I think I’ve been dominating since USADA came. Uriah Hall was a fluke. Anyone who knows anything about this sport knows it was a fluke. I hope to get that rematch one day. I’m top five.
Maybe I’ll throw some bottles at someone’s head and people will notice me. I’ll fight Michael Bisping. With his performance tonight? I like Michael Bisping. But you guys know I can beat Michael Bisping. I will jab his face the whole night. Easy.
McGregor is good for the sport, but what is it? You had Muhammad Ali. He was a hero. He did big things. But now you have Floyd Mayweather and McGregor. Everybody loves it. That sells. People are stupid. They don’t know who’s a real fighter. They just like to see expensive stuff on Instagram, probably. I don’t know.
They could give me an easy fight, like Uriah Hall. Or I get a tough fight, one of the four contenders.
Gegard skickade även ett meddelande till Dana White via twitter, där han bad om en titelmatch:
I beat Hendo in less than 2 minutes and @bisping went 5 rounds with him. Fuck it, let’s just go for gold! @danawhite give me the champ!
