SAN JOSE, Calif. – With a beer in one hand and jellyfish creeping up on
each side of him, UFC lightweight Danny Castillo tried to pretend he was
happy.
But it wasn’t the potential strike of the jellyfish that weighed heavy
on his mind and threatened to ruin his recent vacation to Florida and
Mexico. No, it was a completely different kind of sting that was bugging
“Last Call.”
“I tried to put on a smile and act like the loss didn’t affect me, but
deep-down inside, losing doesn’t sit well with me,” Castillo said at Wednesday’s pre-UFC 139 media workout session. “It affected me.”
