Ortega would like to test himself in a fight with Khabib or Makhachev

Brian Ortega, the UFC's top featherweight, would like to test his grappling skills in a fight with the promotion's former lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov or with the current champion in this weight Islam Makhachev.

"That's a good question. I always said that I would be interested in testing my style in a fight with Khabib when he competed, or now with Islam. I say this with no disrespect, I'm just curious. Any person can be submitted. Anyone. The question is whether you have the skills to do this. It would be interesting for me to train with Khabib and have him test me and show me why it’s hard to submit him,” Ortega said.
