Bo Nickal has called out Khamzat Chimaev and Logan Paul after earning a UFC contract on Dana White’s Contender Series.<\/p>\n

Last night on the final episode of this season’s Contender Series, Bo Nickal tore through Donovan Beard<\/a> with ruthless efficiency to earn himself a UFC contract. It served as the third win of his blossoming pro career, coming just three months after he made his pro mixed martial arts debut with iKON FC – and one month after his first appearance on DWCS.<\/p>\n

There are still plenty of questions circulating regarding what the 26-year-old can do and how far he can go, but one thing is for sure, he’s got the potential to be a real contender in the middleweight division.<\/p>\n

Immediately after his big win, Nickal was asked<\/a> about who he’d like to get in there with, and it turns out that he’s got some high expectations.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the UFC wishes, give me that Swedish dude,\u201d Nickel said. \u201cHe might not even be the best guy, because he can\u2019t even make weight, but if that\u2019s the case, I\u2019ll take him.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf that\u2019s the case then I\u2019ll take him, but if not, give me Logan Paul. UFC debut, me vs Logan Paul, I know he\u2019s got some skills, if we can\u2019t do it in the UFC then let\u2019s do it in WWE, I\u2019ll meet you in the ring.\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked specifically about Chimaev, Nickel didn\u2019t shy away.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet\u2019s get it baby, I\u2019m here. I\u2019m training every day, I put the work in, I make weight, let\u2019s do it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now that’s how you make a statement both in and outside of the cage.<\/p>\n
