Cody Brundage is set to face Bo Nickal at UFC 300, a fight drawing significant attention due to Nickal's status as a highly touted prospect in MMA. Despite being the biggest underdog in UFC history, Brundage remains undeterred, expressing skepticism about the hype surrounding Nickal by stating, "I know people think he's the next coming of Jesus Christ in MMA, but I just don't see it." He also highlighted, "At the end of the day Bo Nickal has never been hit, so for him to be that kind of a favorite is insane to me." Brundage sees the match as a massive opportunity to elevate his status in the sport, asserting, "I'll be a problem for him." Nickal, on the other hand, is seen as one of the hottest prospects to ever step into the Octagon, with expectations high for his performance. The fight is part of a stacked main card, set to be broadcast live on ESPN+ PPV.
