He then shares a bit of the chaos that ensued around the move and explains how he landed at Marathon MMA with Trey Ogden. Plus, he talks about getting that bigger name fighter to add to his resume in Raoni Barcelos and how he feels that this UFC Vegas 75 bout could put him in the thick of things at 135lbs.
