Although Cezar Ferreira has a challenge against Andrew Craig this Saturday night at UFC Fight Night: Swanson vs. Stephens, ‘Mutante’ told Combate.com that he’s targeting a rematch with C.B. Dollaway. The Blackzilian fighter thinks that his loss to “The Doberman” was an accident due unfavourable circumstances.
“I had a turbulent camp at that time. I got sick three times and I also wasn’t in the best of my days, I entered a little anxious. Besides, I virtually didn’t show up to fight. I feel that my body was there but my head was somewhere else and I was induced to make a mistake. I think that I lost to myself, even not taking away Dollaway’s merits. But I haven’t forgot what happened. I’m focusing on Craig now but I’ll seek this rematch. I want a second fight against him, I feel that I would beat him 11 of 10 times.”
Dollaway KO’d Ferreira after only 39 seconds of the beginning of their bout on March, at UFC Fight Night: Shogun vs. Henderson 2. After that win, “The Doberman” beat Francis Carmont by unanimous decision two months later at UFC Fight Night: Munoz vs. Mousasi.
