Geraldo de Freitas was let go by the UFC after back-to-back split decision defeats, he told MMA Fighting.
“Espartano” went 1-2 inside the octagon between February 2019 and November 2020, winning a decision over Felipe Colares in the featherweight division prior to his split decision setbacks to Chris Gutierrez and Tony Gravely at 135 pounds.
De Freitas compiled a professional MMA record of 11-4 in Brazilian promotions such as Jungle Fight, Shooto Brasil, WOCS and Bitetti Combat before joining the UFC. He has yet to sign a deal to resume his career under another promotion’s banner, he said.
