Junior dos Santos tog sig under helgen an Cain Velasquez, under UFC 155. Tungviktsbältet var på spel i en match som varade tiden ut, borta i Las Vegas, Slutligen var det Velasquez som lyckades ta tillbaka bältet och detta är vad Junior har att säga om matchen, via ”SporTV”:
It (he) was better and deserved to win, but I used the wrong strategy. I was very worried about his entry in my legs and left face unprotected. So he hit me. When I was on the floor, I should have used more jiu-jitsu, I trained so much. But I tried to (get) back up, and it hurt me too, but on the ground it (he) is very good, very strong. I did not connect any punches good, even. It was bad because I was feeling very well, did a great training camp, everything was just right. But the fight is (over) anyway.
I want now, soon. I won the first and he had a rematch. Now I lost and I want my rematch. I’m saying I want this fight. I’ll get my belt.
När det blir tal om någon returmatch är i dagsläget oklart, men vi behöver nog inte vänta alltför länge.
