Sometimes, being cut from the biggest promotion in the world is not so bad. In Antonio Carlos Junior’s opinion, his UFC release was the best thing to happen to his career in recent times. Especially after getting picked up by the Professional Fighters League, a company which ‘Shoeface’ believes to be more aligned with his own standards.
After dedicating almost seven years of his career to the Octagon, Antonio is not sad to turn the page. In an interview with Combate, the Brazilian explains that the way the UFC handled business did not really please him.
