Former UFC bantamweight champion Petr Yan is ready to return to the Octagon, but he says no one in the upper echelon of the division wants to fight him.
Hoping to return after his split decision loss to Aljamain Sterling at UFC 273 this past April, Yan recently sent out an open challenge to the rest of the division on social media. When no one responded, ‘No Mercy’ took matters into his own hands and proposed a fight against current UFC flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo.
“No one at 135 wants it…Figgy?,” wrote Yan on Twitter.
