Post-Surgery Shogun Wants the Belt


UFC.com is reporting that Mauricio "Shogun" Rua, just two weeks after losing to Forrest Griffin at UFC 76, is recovering from successful knee surgery to his left ACL.

Shogun's standing in the 205-lb. food chain seems to have dropped with the loss, but the Chute Boxe star still has his eyes on the UFC light heavyweight belt. In fact, post-surgery Shogun has been quoted as saying exactly what you think a fighter in his position might say: he makes no excuses for the loss, he thanks his fans, and he'll come back better than ever.
