AJ McKee welcomes future fights against UFC champions but ‘if the check’s not right, don’t even talk to me’

A.J. McKee already considers himself the best featherweight in the world, but he’s more than ready to prove it against anybody and everybody who wants to challenge him.

The next step in his career ascendancy will take place on Saturday night when the undefeated 26-year-old contender looks to become champion for the first time when he faces featherweight king Patricio Pitbull in the main event at Bellator 263.

A win would move McKee to 18-0 in his career but it would also back up everything he’s been saying about claiming the Bellator title ever since he first debuted in 2015.
