Jamie Siraj “in a really good place” with the UFC after BFL 77 victory

Interview with Jamie Siraj below


Jamie Siraj (9-2) recaps his unanimous decision victory over Esteban Sedano (4-0) at BFL 77 on June 9. Jamie also spoke about nearly dying and the health issues that have kept him out of the cage. The 28-year-old also says he’s optimistic about signing with the UFC soon.

“I’m in a really good place (with the UFC), especially after that (victory). I think more than anything we just can’t confirm anything because of my (eye injury). I’m not trying to give (the UFC) any false sense of a return that i can’t make. I want to make sure that when I get that offer I’m ready to go. I’m just waiting for the prognosis on my eye.”
