I mean that’s why we build these type of cards especially the main events and you know he looked awesome tonight. He looked awesome, he’s super confident and that kid’s ready to take over the world.

The UFC boss detailed that it won’t take him much time to reach the championship if he continues to impress the crowd with his thrilling moves. White added, “What he said to us tonight. He said ‘I want to beat, I want to beat all the top guys in the top ten. I want to beat all the guys in the top five. I want to make sure that there’s no doubt or no question that when I fight for the title that people know I deserve it. So that’s a fun guy that, you know he’s fun so we have the Irish guy blueprint around here.
