Following his UFC Fight Night submission victory over Same Alvey at UFC Fight Night, Julian Marquez challenged a few Chiefs to see who is the pound-for-pound champion of Kansas City.
“You guys know, I’m the baddest man from Kansas City, the baddest middleweight in Missouri, and this is my time right now,” Marquez said. “So Travis Kelce, Patrick Mahomes, Tyreek Hill, I challenge you to badminton or pickleball competition, straight up. If you guys want to see who the pound-for-pound champions of Kansas City, you’re coming after me. This magnificent beard tops all of what you guys have to bring.”
The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, tight end and wide receiver saw the challenge and quickly responded on Twitter.
Kelce suggested the competition be hosted at Chicken N Pickle, a local restaurant and bar.

Marquez has been very good at getting others to respond to him after a fight. After UFC 258, he decided to shoot his shot at Miley Cyrus and actually got a response.
“I’ve been (waiting) 31 months to get on this damn mic and to call these people out right now,” Marquez told Joe Rogan. “This is my time to shine. So Miley Cyrus, will you be my Valentine?”
“Shave an MC into your chest hair and I am YOURS (heart emoji),” Cyrus wrote on Twitter. “Happy VDay and Congrats my love!”
