In any case, the American, number six in the rankings, believes he is not far from the elite group and that his grappling represents a significant threat to the Russian and the other top fighters. It's worth noting that, before challenging Prates, Brady was considered a title contender, but saw his streak of three important victories come to an end when he was knocked out by... MichaelMorales in the first round.

“Everyone wants to fight for the belt. I don’t know who’s scheduled right now. I would fight Usman because he’s a former champion. I think that would make sense. I would fight Prates, for sure. I’ve asked for that fight before. Let’s do it. I’m improving with every fight and I want to be UFC champion. I’m trying to get closer to that little by little. I deserve big fights. So, we’ll see how it unfolds,” said the UFC top fighter.
