Ronaldo Souza (Jacaré) is tired of waiting and says he’ll be going after UFC president Dana White if he’s not next in line for a title shot.

Ronaldo Souza already felt screwed over when Luke Rockhold got the next shot at the middleweight title, so he accepted to take on Yoel Romero after his submission win over Chris Camozzi. This time around, he won’t accept it again in case he defeats “The Soldier of God”.

In case someone else cuts the line, Jacare feels like there’s nothing else he can do but take it to his boss, as he told Combate.

“Rockhold sure cut the line, he wasn’t supposed to be next. My title shot is long overdue, my friend. Here’s the deal, in case I beat Romero, which is what will happen, I’m going after Dana. I can’t go after the matchmaker, because Joe Silva is too small. Dana is a bit bigger. I’m next. I don’t care who wins or loses the next title fight. I want to beat Romero, a really tough guy. I will defeat him and I will be next.”
