WEC Quick Quote: Danny Castillo wants the WEC title -- not revenge on 'Cowboy' Cerrone

"Definitely, (a rematch with Donald Cerrone) would be a huge fight for me. There's that saying -- that revenge is a dish best served cold and that's definitely a fight I would love to have back. But I want a title shot. I'm not worried about the "Cowboy." I want to continue in the lightweight division and make a name for myself. The way it's looking is I'll probably have another fight. I don't know what else I got to do. There's not too many other guys in the division. They keep bringing guys in. They brought in Palaszewski, then Ricardo Lamas beat him and they threw him against me. I haven't had an easy fight since I've been in the WEC. I hope that after this win on the eighteenth they give me a title shot. If not, I'm still getting paid the same no matter what. It doesn't matter, whoever they put in front of me. If I have the proper amount of time, a great training camp and I'm healthy then I'm confident I can beat anybody in the WEC."
-- WEC lightweight contender Danny Castillo answers questions on MMAmania.com's exclusive presentation of Pro MMA Radio earlier this week about a potential rematch with the only man to ever beat him, Donald Cerrone, as well as where he belongs in the WEC lightweight title picture. Castillo has won three straight under the WEC banner since losing his debut on just five days notice to "Cowboy" in June of 2008. "Last Call" is set to do battle with Team Takedown wrestling standout Shane Roller on the main card of WEC 44: "Brown vs. Aldo" on Wednesday, Nov. 18, at 9 p.m. ET on the Versus network live from "The Pearl" at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada. Does another win put him in the line for the title in the suddenly crowded 155-pound division?

He is pretty solid…i think if he wins and Henderson can not fight, then Castillo should get the shot
