UFC Vegas 23 was a spectacular event that showcased many rising stars in the UFC. One fighter who took the internet by storm was none other than Julian Marquez. ā€œThe Cuban Missle Crisisā€ pulled off an incredible submission finish during his bout, but it was his post-fight interview that got everyone buzzing.Ā Marquez challenged Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and Tyreek Hill to either a badminton or pickleball contest.

The Chiefs' star trio responded to Marquez's request and seem open to competing against the UFC fighter:

Apparently, there is a place in Kansas City specifically made for pickleball tournaments, based on Travis Kelce's response. It'd be a fun time for sure, as Marquez is one of the more entertaining personalities in the UFC. In fact, he's so good on the mic, he could have a future in the WWE as well.

Hopefully, when Marquez and the Chiefs' star players link up, they at least stream the event through social media. There are a ton of different opportunities they could explore with this idea, as they may compete while donating to charity.
