Delgado wants some big names for his next outing.
Delgado (11-2) is coming off a hard-fought split-decision win over featherweight veteran Andre Fili earlier this month. Delgado recently called out David Onama, Dan Ige and Josh Emmett. While Onama and Emmett are ranked 14 and 15, respectively, in the official UFC featherweight rankings, Ige recently lost his No. 13 spot to Patricio Freire.
Emmett headlined the same card against Kevin Vallejos, where Delgado defeated Fili. Vallejos knocked Emmett out clean in the very first round. Despite Emmett’s recent loss, Delgado believes the veteran knockout artist still has the “touch of death.” Delgado recalls when Emmett sent Bryce Mitchell to the shadow realm with a right hand in 2023, in one of the scariest knockouts in recent history.
“[David] Onama or Dan Ige would be sweet,” Delgado told
