Wilson Reis had some of the worst months of his life in 2018, and he’s using it as motivation for his UFC on FOX 29 fight against John Moraga.
A one-time flyweight title contender in the UFC, Reis was offered a fight with Moraga at the UFC Belem card in Brazil, on Feb. 3, but having only five weeks to prepare was not enough for him.
Reis’ manager called again on Feb. 1, informing him that the UFC was interesting in matching him up against Moraga at the UFC on FOX 29 in Glendale, on April 14.
