Adrian Yanez would like to fight Daniel Santos or John Castaneda at Noche UFC on Sept. 14.
LAS VEGAS – Adrian Yanez wants to honor his Mexican heritage by partaking in the second annual Noche UFC event.
The UFC bantamweight is looking to compete on the card that celebrates Mexican Independence Day, and he already has a couple of names in mind for that potential opportunity.
“Daniel Santos or John Castañeda,” Yanez told MMA Junkie Radio on radio row at UFC X. “That gym has been calling me out, so I would like to take that fight. Also, Daniel Santos because he’s been calling me out.”
Yanez (17-5 MMA, 6-2 UFC) was recently called out by the hot prospect Payton Talbott after his victory at UFC 303. Speaking to MMA Mania, Yanez addressed the callout, saying he’d be down to fight him.
Noche UFC goes down on Sept. 14 at Sphere in Las Vegas. It’s been a highly requested card to compete in given its venue, which UFC CEO Dana White has hyped up to be one of the greatest combat sports event in history.
“Oh, man. I would do that all day, every day,” Yanez said regarding a potential fight at Noche UFC. “If they gave me the opportunity, I would take that opportunity and run with it. Fight there, so I could be the very first fight … get in, get out and then watch everything else. I don’t know, it would be fun. I would like to.”
