BRASILIA, Brazil -- Jussier Formiga once was the No. 1 flyweight in the world, and he changed his approach to the game in order to get back to the top.
Matched up against Dustin Ortiz at UFC Fight Night 95 in Brasilia, Brazil, on Saturday night, the Nova Uniao talent decided to stop thinking about UFC title shots. Coming off a loss to Henry Cejudo in November, a result that gave his opponent a chance for the gold against flyweight kingpin Demetrious Johnson, Formiga won’t discuss title shots anymore.
"This time without fights was great because I had a chance to rethink my career," Formiga told MMA Fighting.
