I’ll go ahead and assume that the above statement was directed at me. We do have other plans & we won’t just abandon them out of the blue. Also, making weight this quick is impossible this soon after last cut. For the record…I was never offered this fight. @RdosAnjosMMA

Justin Gaethje and Tony Ferguson are two names that ‘Iron’ has mentioned as the fights he wants. Therefore, a short notice fight against ‘RDA’ is not something that entices him at the moment.
