Jorge Santiago quickly realized he’d messed up in his return to the octagon.
“It took me like a half-hour,” he today told MMAjunkie.com Radio. “Soon as I left the ring, I was like, ‘[Expletive].’ That wasn’t me.”
Santiago’s thoughts came in the late hours of May 30 as the main card of UFC 130 got into full swing. He had fallen to Brian Stann’s punches in the second round, which deflated a wave of hype that brought him back to the UFC after a five-year absence.
