Werdum Will Not Fight in GFL After Fight with Mir Falls Apart Read More

Former UFC heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum has announced that he will not participate in the GFL after his opponent, Frank Mir, withdrew from their match due to health issues.

Frank Mir was a fight that motivated me to return. After he announced his withdrawal, I also lost my motivation. The atmosphere in Andre Dida’s academy in Curitiba is unbelievable. It was such a great experience to return do training routine with master Rafael, Wanderlei, Dida, Brunno Hulk and Blindado, but I have to feel the same motivation to return and that was not the case when Mir (withdrew).

His professional mixed martial arts record stands at 24 wins, 10 losses, and 1 draw, with one fight ruled as a no contest.
