The UFC officially announced today that Brandon Vera will, in fact, return to the octagon and fight again in the UFC. Dana White announced that Vera will probably make his return by this October.
Brandon Vera is a young, well-rounded, exciting heavyweight who finishes fights in exciting fashion, said Dana White, UFC President. I think he brings a lot to the heavyweight mix, and I see him in a position to fight for the heavyweight title in 2008.
Vera’s absense can be attributed in part to issues with his former management team; issues that had to be brought before the California State Athletic Commission. Now very has new management and has changed fight camps and is ready to return to the UFC and continue his climb up the ranks.
I’m so excited to be back in the UFC, I have no words to describe the feeling, said Vera.
I realize the UFC heavyweight division is much stronger now, but I like having more challenges, and that just gives me more motivation to train,” said Vera. I feel that when I’m on top of my game, nobody can beat me. I have a plan to become the heavyweight champion, so I’m going to stick to the plan that my management team NCFC and both of my coaches set and win the titles. I want to prove I’m the best for my family, my friends and most of all my fans.
