Patrick Pitbull is about to take the most important step of his career. After 11 years reigning in Bellator, the featherweight champion (up to 65,7 kg) is considering a change of scenery, with the goal of making history in the UFC. The person responsible for fueling this speculation is Eric Albarracin, the coach of the Brazilian, who recently participated in the live SUPER FIGHTS made a bold request to the organization led by Dana White: a super fight against José Aldo.
According to Eric, the fight is necessary to define once and for all who is the greatest Brazilian featherweight of all time. In a relaxed but convincing conversation, 'Captain America', as he is known, revealed his desire to see the athlete move to the UFC, where, according to him, the potential of the Brazilian would be fully explored.
“You want superfights? Let’s talk to Dana White. Patrick Pitbull, 11 years as Bellator champion, is thinking about transferring to the UFC. I want a fight against Max Holloway by the BMF. After that, José Aldo. Everyone in Brazil wanted to know who is the best featherweight in the country's history. We will find the answer,” said Albarracin.
Albarracin's request goes beyond a simple fight. The coach believes that Pitbull, who has not fought since March of this year, urgently needs activity. The decision to request his release from his contract with Bellator, which is facing a financial crisis, comes as an attempt to give Patrício the necessary conditions to continue his journey in search of new challenges.
“If he’s not fighting, he has to fight. He’s 37 years old. What else can he do in Bellator? Let him go. Let the ‘Pitbull’ go,” concluded the coach.
