Upon being quizzed regarding a potential opponent, White said, “no, we’re not talking about a specific opponent but he wants to fight. He wants to fight, it sounds like he wants to fight in June and he’s asking if there would be fans there. There would not be fans and the fight would be either mid-June or end of June.”
White refused to divulge on a specific opponent. However, he did hint at one person in a chat with Dennis Bermudez on the Menace and the Man podcast. They were discussing Jorge Masvidal. White said the Usman fight is there, but added, “but, yeah, there’s another interesting fight out there for him right now.”
