Brian Ortega has announced that he plans to move up to UFC lightweight.

"I was talking to people in the UFC and they told me that there are no opponents for me in the featherweight division. I replied that there are guys in the top 10 who are resting right now. They told me they wanted more for me. I was offered to wait, but I replied that I don't want to be idle. I'm not that young anymore and I want to stay active," Brian Ortega told YouTube channel Submission Radio.
