Tanner Boser
Wants to fight: [autotag]Maurice Greene[/autotag]
The callout: “You already know, man. Maurice Greene, you stole a payday from me last August. I ain’t forgotten that yet. Let’s do it in the fall. I’m coming.”
The reality: [autotag]Tanner Boser[/autotag] bulldozed another opponent at UFC Fight Island, then went straight back to the same name he called out after his previous victory in Abu Dhabi. And, why not? The matchup seems to make sense from a divisional standpoint, there’s a slightly tetchy backstory behind it and both men are coming off victories. It’s a fight that offers each man the chance to catapult themselves towards the division’s bigger names and, with both men seemingly keen to make it happen, it seems like a slam-dunk booking for a little later this year.
