Fabricio Werdum is eyeing a rematch with heavyweight legend Fedor Emelianenko after picking up a win against Alexander Gustafsson in a fight which may be the last of his long and successful UFC career.
Werdum snapped a two-fight losing streak which stretched back to 2017 at UFC Fight Island 3. The BJJ specialist quickly forced Gustafsson to the floor before locking up the armbar submission.
During his post-fight interview Werdum became emotional while speaking to Dan Hardy. The fight was the final of his UFC contract and most likely his last fight with the promotion. The 42-year-old explained to reporters at the post-fight press conference why he was overcome with emotion, he said.
“The emotion was because this is my last fight in the UFC. I had many years with the UFC. I don’t know how many I had with the UFC, like 10 years (or) 12 years. You know? I’m a working individual – on Spanish commentaries. I think almost all of my life was here. I love UFC for sure. I want to say thank you to the UFC for many things.”
Werdum didn’t totally rule out staying with the UFC and no matter what happens he has vowed to keep on fighting.
“I don’t say ‘no’ because I have to talk to (my manager) Ali (Abdelaziz) first,” Werdum said. “Sometimes you lose the last fight in the UFC, and it’s like everything changes,” Werdum said. “You know? I don’t know if I’m staying in the UFC or not or maybe with a different (promotion). I won’t stop (fighting). One hundred percent I’m not stopping. I have a couple fights (left). I told you before, I’m very young. My mind is young.”
One fight Werdum is particularly interested in is a rematch with Bellator heavyweight Emelianenko he said.
“I want to fight with Fedor, 100 percent. I respect him a lot. I want to give this opportunity to him to fight with me again. This has history: Me vs. Fedor in 2010. Ten years later, everybody wants to see this fight. I don’t know where, but for sure I want to fight with Fedor because I respect him. In my mind, he is the best in the world.” (Transcribed by MMA Junkie)

Long-time light-heavyweight contender Alexander Gustafsson has released a statement reacting to his first-round submission loss to Fabricio Werdum in his heavyweight debut at UFC Fight Island 3.
The fight didn’t last long. Werdum and Gustafsson exchanged a few shots on the feet before the Brazilian managed to drag the fight to the mat. Once there he quickly locked up an armbar and got the win.
Gustafsson took to Twitter to react to his third straight loss and praise his teammate Khamzat Chimaev, who picked up a second UFC win in ten days beating promotional newcomer Rhys McKee earlier in the evening.
“It’s sucks to lose but I’m alive and healthy it’s a sport, a sport that I love!” Gustafsson wrote. “Thanks Werdum for a great fight and the UFC for the opportunity! Now let’s celebrate my brother and teammate kamza borz!!! He’s coming for everyone, be ready”

Gustafsson has now lost three fights in a row. The 33-year-old was stopped by light-heavyweight champion Jon Jones before being tapped by top contender Anthony Smith. The Swedish fighter briefly retired from the sport before announcing he would be returning to take on Werdum at heavyweight.
The former UFC heavyweight champion recorded his first win since 2017 last night. Werdum lost to Aleksei Oleinik and Alexander Volkov either side of a two-year USADA ban for a failed drugs test. The win against Gustafsson will likely be Werdum’s last in the UFC. His contract is now up and before the Yas Island event, he had spoken about wanting to fight elsewhere.
Should Alexander Gustafsson keep fighting?
