Los Angeles \u2014\u00a0Former Bellator MMA double champ Patricio Pitbull takes on UFC Hall of Famer (Fight Wing) Doo-Ho Choi at UFC 331 this weekend, with questions about his contract hovering over him.<\/p>\n
Yet after previously stating that his deal was up following the fight this Saturday, he issued a correction on Wednesday, speaking with media outlets including Cageside Press at the UFC 331 media day.<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel ready, I\u2019m comfortable. My training camp was good,\u201d featherweight Pitbull (37-9) stated, in English. Then, via translator, he added that \u201cAbout my contract, I believe we made a mistake. Everyone\u2019s thinking the contract\u2019s going to be over after this fight, but they\u2019re wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n
Asked how many more fights he has, the Brazilian replied \u201cI don\u2019t think I can say.\u201d<\/p>\n
Pitbull is 1-2 in the UFC, which puts him in a precarious situation. Not to mention, fellow Bellator MMA ex-pat Michael \u201cVenom\u201d Page was recently released with a 5-1 record.<\/p>\n
That release was brought to Pitbull\u2019s attention, who said simply that \u201cdeals have a beginning and an end. That\u2019s normal, and if the organization wasn\u2019t happy with it, that\u2019s part of it. That\u2019s normal.\u201d<\/p>\n
MVP\u2019s release was wildly seen as being the result of his UFC fights going the distance, despite his high-level striking ability.<\/p>\n
As for the Fight of the Night potential that comes with his fight with Doo-Ho Choi, Pitbull exclaimed \u201cme against \u2018Korean Superboy\u2019 is going to be fireworks, I believe. We\u2019re going to win that.\u201d<\/p>\n
