It’s been said that can catch more flies with honey than you can with vinegar. Whether that’s true for every scenario or not, it seems to have worked for UFC lightweight Gilbert Burns . After being – nicely – called out by Burns (14-3 MMA, 7-3 UFC) on MMAjunkie Radio earlier this month, Canadian striking specialist John Makdessi (16-6 MMA, 9-6 UFC) says he’s down to meet the Brazilian grappling ace in the octagon. Not only that, he’s also fine with time and place picked out by his possible opponent: UFC on ESPN 2, which takes place March 30 at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. “That makes sense – why not?” Makdessi told MMAjunkie Radio this past week.
