Zhumagulov: "Negotiating with UFC"

Kazakhstani mixed martial arts veteran Zhalgas Zhumagulov, who competes in the lightest weight class, said he is in talks to return to the UFC.

"I'm going to fly to the United States soon, I'm going to be there. I want to fight in August. We talked to Sayat (Abdrakhmanov, the fighter's manager). I am negotiating with UFC. Either as a replacement, or I will jump back.

August, September, October, I don't know exactly. I'll come back [to the UFC] at the first opportunity. The main thing is that I'm on a winning streak. There are no problems with doping, I will pass it at any time," - quotes Zhumagulov Legalbet.kz.

Recall that Zhumagulov left the UFC last summer after four consecutive defeats. In total, the 35-year-old fighter has 16 wins and 9 losses.
