Renato ‘Moicano’ Targets Potential Matchups with Dober, Turner, Riddell

Renato Carneiro is eager to return to action after falling to Rafael dos Anjos at UFC 272 this past March.

“I´m just waiting for a UFC call. Just give me four weeks and I´ll be ready for anyone,” Carneiro told Sherdog.com.

“Moicano” is 3-2 at 155 pounds after moving up from featherweight. With that in mind, the American Top Team-trained fighter recognizes he is not in a position to choose opponents.

“As a fighter we must understand our role in the [show]. I'm coming from a defeat and expecting UFC to offer me some undefeated guy making his UFC debut or some tough Russian, but that's not a problem — I´m used to killing two lions per day and that's what I need do that in order to return to the rankings,” he said.
