LAS VEGAS – UFC lightweight Grant Dawson is itching to get a big name on his resume.
Dawson wants to take a step up and face a recognized opponent in the division, and his preference is former interim champion Tony Ferguson. Dawson (19-1-1 MMA, 7-0-1 UFC) called out Ferguson after his submission win over Mark Madsen (12-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC) on Saturday at UFC Fight Night 214.
He believes it’s the right next step for his career.
