Patchy Mix is set to make his arrival in the Bantamweight department of the UFC and it is not there to come up with the figures.
A few comments have been taken between Mix and Mario Bautista prior to UFC 316, where the #10-ranged competitions will spoil the debut of the new signing.
The 31-year-old has long been considered one of the best hunters outside the UFC with a mix that applies a number of amazing versions in Bellator.
On the same night that he makes the walk for the first time, the Bantamweight title will be defended in the main event by a man who knows the former Bellator champion very well.
Mix already had conversations with Merab Dvalishvili about his UFC movement, where the two men may turn from training partners to rivals.

Patchy Mix claims that for how good Merab Dvalishvili is, he would not have much success against him
In a recent interview with Shakiel Mahjouri, Patchy Mix spoke about the main event of UFC 316, where Merab Dvalishvili stands in a rematch opposite Sean O'Malley.
Mix has been training with DvalishVili for a number of years, but they had to put this aside when it was announced that the former Bellator champion had signed at the UFC.
The new arrival is convinced that he can reach the top of the Bantamweight Division, which may mean that he is confronted with his former training partner.
Mix gave his former teammate syndicate many props when breaking the main event on 7 June, while he added that he believes that he could be the one who would put an end to the remarkable winning series of Dvalishvili.
He believes that for all the success that 'the machine' had in the Octagon, a matchup between them would be different.
'Don't count from O'Malley by man. O'Malley has eliminated Aljamain [Sterling] And I think Aljamain is just as good as Merab at Bantam weight, you know? They have similar references … Merab's just on this real dominant run.
“He is very good, as if I am not wrong, as very good. I don't think, with all due respect, I think he is very good against everyone, but I don't think he is very good against me. I think I'm a very different matchup for these guys.”
Patchy Mix expects Merab Dvalishvili Sean O'Malley to finish on UFC 316
Before you say that you can't count Sean O'Malley, Patchy Mix predicted that Merab Dvalishvili will keep his title on 7 June.
He believes that the challenger can eventually break if the champion can implement his will in Newark, New Jersey.
“I think it could go in the same way as last time, but I think Merab might be able to finish him because I think it will be difficult for O'Malley to lose against him and like to be dominated. I think he can throw the towel in the towel or give up a entrance.”
Mix also said that he believes that Dvalishvili could have ended the first fight, but instead of going for an entry, he chose to taunt O'Malley by kissing him on the head.
The new arrival made it completely clear that he would not have done the same with 'Suga' in the same scenario.
“If I was in that position, I would have put you asleep and your head off Guilloted.”
