Danillo Villefort (9-3) is back to the training routine and working at his academy in Miami where he teaches 160 students or so “Not bad, huh?” joked the fighter who was dismissed from the UFC after his debut versus Jesse Lenox at “Declaration” past month.
Villefort says the injured eye damaged his performance during that fight. After watching the bout with Lenox he said he fought well but made mistakes that couldn’t had done.
“I fought well but made some basic mistakes I couldn’t have given to myself the right to error. It’s over! It has already gone and I’m expecting the next combat”.
“I wasn’t seeing nothing with my left eye, there was too much blood on it. It’s not possible to see it on the tape but before getting up I asked the referee to clean my eye. Actually I think he was nervous because that was his first time at UFC. Maybe that was the reason he jumped into conclusions” said the athlete to Brasil Combate. (http://www.brasilcombate.com.br)
Índio (indian in English) explained why UFC gave him the papers after the debut. In fact, the loss was not the main reason for that, as you can read.
“Everybody has been saying I was cut from the Ultimate for that fight but it wasn’t the cause. The question is they (UFC) hired many fighters from Affliction at once and couldn’t maintain all of them. Then the guys who fought on the undercard and were defeated were fired. I hope to be back in a near future to put on good shows”.
Alex Davis – Villefort agent – made an one-fight deal with Shine Fights for November and the Brazilian hopes to face any recent fighter released from his former organisation. Davis has been involved in negotiations and Brasil Combate will be able to reveal the details as soon there’s some certain news.
