Bellator MMA two-division champion Patricio “Pitbull” Freire is waiting to return to action in his promotion, but he has interest in taking on the UFC’s featherweight king.
After UFC 251’s co-main event between Alexander Volkanovski and Max Holloway, Pitbull tweeted out his wish for both the Muhammad Ali Act for MMA, along with a champion vs. champion showdown with Volkanovski.
We need the Ali Act for MMA. I could fight one of these guys, Champion vs Champion. That's what MMA fans want to see.

Presumably his call for the Ali Act in MMA is with the hope that such implementation would pave the way for more cross-promotional fights to exist.
