Rakic is currently returning to Austria and is expected to have the surgery done as soon as possible. “Rocket” posted a message on his Instagram account on Monday, part of which seemed to be directed toward Blachowicz.
“God had other plans for me Saturday night. Sometimes we need to lose small battles in order to win the war,” he wrote. Win or lose, good or bad the experience will change you.
“One thing I promise you, I will be back better than ever. This is not over yet. Unfinished business. Rematch! I waited for you to heal. Now you wait for me to heal. Let’s run it back!”
Rakic is 6-2 in UFC competition following Saturday’s defeat. He owns notable wins over the likes of Thiago Santos, Anthony Smith and Jimi Manuwa.
