Titan FC Champion Raush Manfio Talks how Journey to America has led to Improvements

Titan FC lightweight champion Raush Manfio is set to defend his title against Lee Henry Lilly on Friday, Feb. 16 at Titan FC 48.

Manfio hopes that an impressive performance will grant him another opportunity with the UFC. The Brazilian fell short on The Ultimate Fighter Brazil Season 4 where he was submitted by Glaico Franca. Manfio did not receive a call from the UFC, then was forced to ply his trade elsewhere.

He has since gone to Titan FC, went 4-1 and has won the promotion’s lightweight title.
