OBERHAUSEN, Germany – A promise is a promise, especially when it’s advertised.

Although underwhelmed by Yushin Okami’s unanimous-decision victory over Nate Marquardt, UFC president Dana White said the Japanese fighter will get a title shot at the middleweight belt.

“Was that the most exciting fight I’ve ever seen? No,” White told MMAjunkie.com. “It was not. But he went in there against a very tough opponent in Marquardt and won.”
