Michael Morales has accepted a fight offer from Ian Machado-Garry. Now, we have to see if the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) will sign off on it.
“I wanna fight before the end of the year and I’m being told you’re not available,” Garry texted Morales. “You were able to be the back up for the world title fight but not able to take a fight with me now? You’ve also asked to be a back up for the next title fight, but still not available to fight with me?
“Looks like someone is avoiding me,” he added. “Talk all that s–t online then don’t agree to fight? What’s going on here?”
“My son, what are you talking about?” Morales replied. “I fight whenever you want I just want a contract and that’s it I’ll kick your ass.”
Garry then called his shot, suggesting “Saudi [Arabia]. November 28th. Let’s do it.”
“Sign it, my son, and we’ll do it,” Morales replied.
And will Morales really sign on the dotted line when he’s one injury to Carlos Prates from sliding into a 170-pound title shot? So many questions surrounding this potential fight, but there’s no denying it’d be one helluva battle.
