Not much has been heard from Alexander Gustafsson since he memorable 25 minute war with champion Daniel Cormier in October at UFC 192. Today, The Mauler spoke to Aftonbladet and said “I’m far from finished”.

“I feel that I have a lot more to give” says the 29 year old that trains out of Stockholm’s Allstars Training Center. However, the light heavyweight’s next move will be training back in California.

“Next plan now is to go to San Diego in late January. I’m going there, get a change of scene and get started with the training there. I take with me my girlfriend, and we will be there a month or two, or three. We have not decided on anything.”

Gustafsson has now lost his last three of four bouts after his close bout for the title. He is ready to turn things around and get back in the Octagon. “Spring, early summer. It all depends on how I feel in the body. It should feel good in your body, then I can start my training camp. Here we go eight weeks hard, then I take a fight.”

For his two title fights, the other against Jon Jones in 2013, Gustafsson again gained the respect of the MMA world with his ability to absorb punishment and keep pressing the action with punches and get take-downs.

While Gustafsson did end up getting $50,000 extra for performance of the night at UFC 192 in the split decision, it is no consolation for the tough loss. “I still sleep badly.”
