Tom Breese has become one of the sport’s most highly touted prospects at 170 pounds, but the 24 year-old has loftier goals than that.

The 24 year-old, British fighter has gone 9-0 to date in pro MMA, and since arriving in the UFC he’s stopped Luiz Jorge Dutra Jr. and Cathal Pendred. Up next Breese will take on Keita Nakamura at UFC Fight Night 84 in London, England.

Recently the Tristar fighter spoke to UFC.com about the upcoming bout, in which, Breese is a massive favorite to win. Here is some of what he had to say about the match-up as well as his aspirations.

“It’s not my personality, I just feel like I could never overlook anyone,” Breese said. “Everyone’s got two fists, everyone can knock someone out in this sport.”

“Every training camp, I’m not just preparing for my next opponent. I’m pushing myself to the limits, preparing to be world champion.”

Nakamura (31-6-2) submitted Jingliang Li in his last bout, and the Japanese fighter has won five straight.
