October 12, 2016 | Posted by Larry Csonka

– Following his UFC 204 victory, Stefan Struve (28-8 MMA, 12-6 UFC) has his sights set on his next fight. Struve is looking to fight a name and that name is Josh Barnett (35-8 MMA, 7-3 UFC). Here is what he had to say on Brian Stann’s Radio Show

“December or January makes sense for me for sure, depending on the fight the UFC wants to give me. looked at the rankings with my coaches and my manager, and one of the first names that comes up to me is Josh Barnett, who is also coming off a win…. He’s ranked higher than me. I think a win over him would definitely bring me closer to my goal of fighting for the title. He came off a really interesting fight with Arlovski, and I’d love to have that fight.”
