Montez Ford Says He’s Already Told Nick Khan That If He Needs To Step In The UFC Octagon, He Will Be That Guy For WWE

Montez Ford truly wants all the smoke.

The WWE and UFC merged to become a unit known as TKO. Since then, many fans, plus the superstars and fighters from both promotions have discussed the idea of a crossover between the WWE and UFC in the future.

During a conversation about it with Liam Crowley of ComicBook, Montez Ford said that he had already spoken with Nick Khan and informed him that if they needed it, Ford wouldn’t mind stepping inside the UFC’s octagon.

“I don’t think people know, but yes, I was in the military and I was also a brown, almost a black belt in the military as well. Now not only do I have hand-to-hand combat experience, but I got life experience,” Ford told Liam Crowley of ComicBook. “Bobby said I would do exceedingly well especially because he knows my training regimen and my drive. He knows by getting some assistance in that area, I should do exceedingly well. I can throw hands with anybody here backstage, including this one (Angelo Dawkins). I don’t get tired unlike some people. I’m very motivated to do so. I even told Nick Khan, I said, ‘Hey, I know you’re doing all these crossovers, but if you need somebody to do another crossover and step to the octagon, I’ll be that guy.”

“I think the weight that people need to be worried about is whatever weight I decide to do, because I’m throwing hands. I put it right here officially on ComicBook right now: If anybody truly feels like if I cross over, that they could just take me down very easily because I’m not so used to this field and UFC, tell ’em to holler at me. As the wrestlers say, for shoot. I’m ready. If they want to do something in the octagon, if they want to place me in a crossover event, WWE versus UFC, I would gladly be that representation. Right now we don’t have any more representation. I would definitely be the representation.”

Ford is currently focused on becoming the WWE Tag Team Champions alongside his longtime partner Angelo Dawkins of the Street Profits.
