LOS ANGELES—Five years from now, how much better can A.J. McKee be than he is today?
“That’s a good question,” the new Bellator MMA featherweight champion said after he finished Patricio Freire in the Bellator 263 headliner on Saturday in Inglewood, California. “I don’t know. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see. Keep reaching new plateaus. Stay in the gym. I’ll be in the gym Monday. No days off.”
At 26, the next-generation Bellator champion has just begun to show the full scope of his talent.
