King Green is already looking beyond UFC 329, declaring his intention to chase the UFC’s BMF title if he can get past Terrance McKinney in Las Vegas.
Green is set to face McKinney in the main card opener at UFC 329, which takes place at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Green enters the bout on a three-fight winning streak, including a second-round TKO of Daniel Zellhuber in February and a first-round submission of Jeremy Stephens at UFC 328.
"I'm really trying to chase that BMF belt," Green said, outlining what’s driving him at this stage of his career. "Get another accolade to add to my career, and my roster is just chasing the BMF, if I can get that title and bring it back to my boy Nate Diaz. So, that's my intentions."
Green also shared his view on what the BMF label represents to him. "I feel like the BMF is something different where we're trying to keep fighting really alive, and Charles f*cked that up for us," he said. "But I'm trying to keep fighting in its classic form. It's a fight, and some of the newer guys are trying to water the brand down and go, 'It's just a competition. We're competing.' No, no, no, we're fighting. So, hopefully I can get that honor to be considered one of the BMFs and go fight for the BMF title."
Green holds a 35-17-1 professional MMA record and is 16-12-1 in the UFC, while McKinney enters UFC 329 at 18-8 in MMA and 8-5 in the UFC.
