Professional Fighters League featherweight title at Super Rizin 5 September 5 in Osaka, Japan.
Brian Ortega says that elite fighters outside of the UFC can lower that list
McKee and Ortega have been working together in preparation for their upcoming bouts, with the latter returning at UFC 331. “T-City” recently praised the former Bellator
champion’s elite skill set and believes that some UFC fighters would be humiliated by fighters from other promotions. According to Ortega, the UFC doesn’t sign some fighters because it understands the threat they pose.
“The UFC is just a marketing machine,” Ortega said on Anatomy of a Fighter. “There are people outside (the UFC) who would call us out, and they know that. They don’t call them out. There are people who dedicate their lives to this and you see it. There’s no pretending technique and skill; heart and even mindset … I know (McKee) knows what he’s doing and he’s at the highest level.”
Ortega (16-5) hopes to bounce back from two losses Renato “Money” Moicano (21-7) at UFC 331 September 19 at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Meanwhile, McKee (25-2) is riding a three-fight winning streak heading into his clash against the undefeated Shaidullev (19-0), who has a 100% record.
