Christos Giagos admits he fell into a depression after suffering a stoppage loss in his first fight back in the regional circuit following his UFC release last year.
Christos Giagos was released from the UFC after a unanimous decision loss to top prospect Chris Wade in June 2015. Many people — including himself — questioned the organization’s decision to remove the 26-year-old from its roster because he was only 1-2 in the UFC after the loss and wasn’t on a multi-fight losing streak. On top of that, Wade is a tough outing for the majority of the UFC lightweight roster and only has lost once under the UFC banner.
