The current UFC bantamweight champion, 32-year-old Russian Petr Yan, is skeptical about facing former two-division UFC champion Conor McGregor.
Idman.Biz reports that Yan believes Conor would be a very difficult opponent for him if he fully commits to training.
"Is this fight possible? Very unlikely. McGregor has good boxing skills. If he fully commits to training, he will be a very difficult opponent for me. He has long arms, he's sensitive... But again, let's consider his age and training... There are many examples of people winning thanks to pressure, endurance, and desire," Yan said in an interview with Nurlan Saburov on his YouTube channel.
