WINNIPEG – Eddie Wineland ‘s new mustache should’ve been in full effect this week, on display for Canada – and the world – to see. Instead, he’s at home, on his stomach on a tattoo table for two straight days, getting his back inked. But the newly handlebar mustachioed bantamweight wants it known he isn’t going anywhere. And when UFC interim champion Renan Barao (30-1 MMA, 5-0 UFC) is able to return, Wineland (20-8-1 MMA, 2-2 UFC) wants the title shot he was supposed to have on Saturday at UFC 161. UFC 161 takes place at MTS Centre in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, and Wineland was set to headline the pay-per-view card in an interim title bout against Barao – until a Barao foot injury knocked him off the show this past month. Instead, former light heavyweight champion Rashad Evans takes the lead against ex-PRIDE titleholder Dan Henderson . “It just sucked a lot (hearing about the injury),” Wineland told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). “I finally get my big shot, and he has an unfortunate injury.
