Mauricio "Shogun" Rua has told Tatame.com that he is now walking and looking forward to training again after successful surgery on his right knee. Rua suffered the injury in a loss to Forrest Griffin at UFC 76.
Asked about a possible date for his return to the octagon and who he expects to face next, Shogun responded:
“In truth I still do not have an official date, but I predict February. Truthfully, I do not choose my opponents, but if it were a recognized name it would be better. A Tito Ortiz or Chuck Liddell, a popular name would be better. But for now I am focusing on getting back to training.”
