Murilo "Ninja" Rua Hopes for EliteXC Resurrection

In an interview with Tatame.com former EliteXC standout Murilo "Ninja" Rua talked about his current situation.

"I'm focused now on Mauricio’s (Shogun) fight and I have nothing planned for my situation yet. I'm still connected to EliteXC and have to wait. I see it (possibility to EliteXC’s back) as very good news, I would be very happy and if the rumors confirm... It’s wait to see"

I would love to see Ninja in the UFC, only because in almost every single one of his fights he is either KO'd brutally or vice versa.  He always brings it and that's what Dana White loves, but of course he has to wiggle out of the EXC contract somehow.

Hmmm....

This is a case of “wish in one hand and crap in the other”….

I’d rather see Benji Radach in the UFC.

Ninja had a bright future

but he honestly ruined himself jumping up and down in weight so much. That shit takes a toll on your body.

His body is fine

But his brain is fucked. He should really retire before he stops being commissioned or becomes seriously debilitated. He’s endured way too many concussions.

And yes, I’d rather see Radach in the UFC.
