SACRAMENTO, Calif. – Two of the top rising featherweights, Josh Emmett and Mirsad Bektic , are looking to enter title contention when they clash Saturday at UFC on ESPN+ 13. And while Emmett (14-2 MMA, 5-2 UFC) believes both he and Bektic (13-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC) possess similar skill sets, he won’t allow Bektic to push the pace and control the fight. “He’s a tough opponent,” Emmett told MMA Junkie during media day.
