‘Jacare’ Souza Sets Sights On Yoel Romero Or Lyoto Machida Upon UFC Return, Doesn’t Seek Immediate Title Shot Despite Claim To It

News

If you believe that Ronaldo ‘Jacare’ Souza deserves the next shot at the middleweight title, you could make a pretty strong case.

The Brazilian hasn’t lost in three years but has been derailed by an elbow injury. As a result, it appears that Luke Rockhold has jumped ahead of him in the rankings with the American beating Michael Bisping last weekend.

It appears Jacare is okay with this as his management told UFC Tonight, that he wants to face Yoel Romero or Lyoto Machida in his return fight (assuming Machida beats C.B. Dolloway on December 20).
