Two months removed from his successful surgery on his left elbow, Werdum said he is now 100 percent healthy and ready to start MMA training again.
(I made) “a couple of good contacts in Abu Dhabi and Japan. Strikeforce want me to return in March against Fedor or Overeem, but I’m looking forward to having a fight before that one. I don’t have an exclusive contract with Strikeforce, only for the U.S., and I got a nice proposal in Abu Dhabi and another one in Japan,” explained Werdum, who plans to begin working out with trainer Rafael Cordeiro this week.
I’ve got my last professional commitment in New York. By next week, I’ll be back helping ‘Babalu’ and Fernando Bettega who will fight for Strikeforce on Dec. 4. My arm is 100 percent now and I feel that by February, I’ll be ready to fight in Abu Dhabi or Japan.”
