NEW YORK – Baisangur Susurkaev met the media Saturday after his win over Eric McConico at UFC 322.
Susurkaev (11-0 MMA, 2-0 UFC) was far and away the biggest favorite on the card and knocked out McConico (10-4-1 MMA, 1-2 UFC) in the third round on the prelims at Madison Square Garden.

Afterward, Susurkaev used his time on the microphone for a big middleweight callout of Bo Nickal, who fought later on the prelims at UFC 322 and picked up a third-round knockout of his own.
“I saw (Nickal) a couple times (during fight week), but didn’t talk to him,” Susurkaev said at his post-fight news conference. “He’s a good fighter, and I think I can beat him easy. He’s a famous guy, and I want to be someone famous like him. He’s a wrestler, and I’d like an easy fight with a wrestler.”
