“Obviously he’s a draw, he’s a guy that puts on a show. He’s a guy that people want to see, he delivers every time. It’s wild, it’s chaos, it’s fight of the year, fight of the night. Somebody’s getting messed up. He delivers every time.” American top team coach Mike Brown said.

According to Brown, Dustin could need a break and 2nd lightweight would require something to push him up.

Brown did not commit to a fight but he didn’t dismiss it either. He said, “Yea I mean they are 2 fan favorites. Both super exciting guys every fight is chaos. I mean that’s a monster fight. I have no idea where Nate is right now where he stands on what he wants to do. But of course, this is a big fight that everybody would be excited about.”
