Roberto Soldić discusses failed title fight and UFC debut
Mixed martial artist Roberto Soldić has addressed the circumstances surrounding a failed title fight against Christian Lee in ONE Championship. Soldić stated that he had signed a contract for the championship bout, which included Lee's name, but the match never materialized because Lee did not sign the agreement.
Soldić, known as ‘Robocop’, is now focusing on his transition to the UFC. He expressed that he views his move to the organization as a fresh start, treating his career as if he were beginning from zero. He noted that his first opponent in the UFC, Khaos Williams, was the first to accept the challenge, allowing him to remain active.
Former UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya has reportedly expressed interest in Soldić's career. Adesanya has been reviewing footage of Soldić's previous performances from his time in KSW and ONE Championship ahead of the Croatian's UFC debut.
