Unbeaten in his first 11 professional fights, Alexis Vila is now a free agent after back-to-back losses.

The 41-year-old Vila told MMAjunkie.com Radio that he has been released by Bellator following a loss to Luis Nogueira in the opening round of the promotion’s season-six bantamweight tournament, which took place this past Friday at Bellator 65.

Now, the former Olympian plans a move to flyweight, and hopefully, to the UFC.
