Former UFC heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum was hit with a two-year suspension by the United States Anti-Doping Agency after failing an out-of-competition drug test in 2018, and is now trying to get released by the UFC.
Werdum’s manager Ali Abdelaziz told MMA Fighting earlier this week that he thinks “Vai Cavalo” is done with the promotion and fans “will never see him in the UFC again”, and hopes for UFC’s “blessing” by releasing the Brazilian veteran from his contract.
On Thursday night, Werdum went on a live interview with PVT and confirmed that his goal is to convince the promotion to release him from his contract.
