Bobby
Green wants a shot to compete at the
UFC’s White House card. 

Green was a sizeable underdog going into his lightweight matchup
against an up-and-coming Daniel
Zellhuber at
UFC Mexico on Saturday. Green led the dance from the opening
bell and completely outstruck Zellhuber before knocking him out
late in the second round in front of his home fans.

When asked about his next potential opponent, Green called for Nate Diaz to
be re-signed to the UFC. However, Green later changed tune and
called for a matchup against Michael
Chandler at the White House in June.

‘I’m a Great American’

“Michael
Chandler at the White House, that would be dope,” Green said in
an interview with the UFC. “I’d love to be on the White House lawn.
I’m a great American. I want to show for the Black folks and say,
‘Hey America, this is what a standup Black American looks like.’
I’m showing the example to America and saying, ‘Hey, this is who I
am. I represent America.’”

Green (34-17) is now on a two-fight winning streak that saw him
rebound from consecutive losses against Paddy
Pimblett and Mauricio
Ruffy. Meanwhile, Chandler (23-10) is 2-5 in the UFC and
currently on a three-fight slump.
