'Jacare' Souza expects Yoel Romero rematch after UFC 208 because Michael Bisping is running

RIO DE JANEIRO — Ronaldo Souza is tired of waiting for a shot at the UFC middleweight title.

Winner of nine of his last 10 MMA fights, ”Jacare” is set to take on Tim Boetsch at the upcoming UFC 208 card on Feb. 11, and told the media during a media day in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, that he doesn’t expect to earn a title shot even if he scores an spectacular finish in Brooklyn.

Souza’s only loss under the UFC banner was a close decision against Yoel Romero, and that’s exactly who he sees as his next opponent after UFC 208.
