Free agent Eduardo Dantas wishes to give UFC a try: ‘There are great challenges for me there’

Former Bellator bantamweight champion Eduardo Dantas is no longer signed with the second biggest mixed martial arts promotion in the world.

While ‘Dudu’ tests free agency following a knockout loss to current champ Juan Archuleta in his last outing, he does expect to land in the bigger company in the world, after dedicating the majority of his career to Bellator.

In an interview with Ag Fight, Dantas shared his desire to compete in the UFC, where he believes the biggest challenges of his career might be at the moment. Furthermore Dantas is interested in challenging Petr Yan’s title, while he would also enjoy being under the same roof as his teammate and friend Jose Aldo.
