There hasn’t been any UFC-WWE crossover since the TKO merger yet, but Montez Ford is open to the possibilities. In an interview with Comicbook.com, Ford said that he spoke with WWE President Nick Khan and said he was willing to get into the Octagon.
He said: “I don’t think people know, but yes, I was in the military and I was also a brown, almost a black belt in the military as well. Now not only do I have hand-to-hand combat experience, but I got life experience. Bobby said I would do exceedingly well especially because he knows my training regimen and my drive. He knows by getting some assistance in that area, I should do exceedingly well. I can throw hands with anybody here backstage, including this one (Angelo Dawkins). I don’t get tired unlike some people. I’m very motivated to do so. I even told Nick Khan, I said, ‘Hey, I know you’re doing all these crossovers, but if you need somebody to do another crossover and step to the octagon, I’ll be that guy. I think the weight that people need to be worried about is whatever weight I decide to do, because I’m throwing hands. I put it right here officially on ComicBook right now: If anybody truly feels like if I cross over, that they could just take me down very easily because I’m not so used to this field and UFC, tell ’em to holler at me. As the wrestlers say, for shoot. I’m ready. If they want to do something in the octagon, if they want to place me in a crossover event, WWE versus UFC, I would gladly be that representation. Right now we don’t have any more representation. I would definitely be the representation.“
