Alexander Volkanovski and Brian Ortega almost faced each other at the UFC 260 event. However, as Volkanovski tested positive for COVID-19, the fight had to be canceled.

Therefore, as Ortega and Volkanovski could not compete inside the Octagon, they would love to get one over the other in The Ultimate Fighter.
