ANAHEIM, Calif. – Said Nurmagomedov is looking for a notable challenge after his clash with Cody Stamann on Saturday at UFC 270 . Nurmagomedov (14-2 MMA, 3-1 UFC) is currently on a three-fight winning streak in the bantamweight division and looking to extend that run against Stamann (19-4-1 MMA, 5-3-1 UFC) in their main card matchup at Honda Center. The card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and ESPN+. Going into the matchup, Stamann has been expressing his interest in a future matchup with Sean O’Malley (15-1 MMA, 7-1 UFC), who is one of the most popular names in the division. Nurmagomedov, however, said he wants that fight for himself or a bout with Marlon Vera (18-7-1 MMA, 12-6 UFC) if he gets his hand raised this weekend.
