"Come on old timer" - Johan Ghazali pokes at Denis Puric in hopes of securing career-defining matchup against hardened veteran

Veteran fighter Denis Puric has finally responded to the constant callout from teenage sensation Johan Ghazali to fight him. He used his official Instagram account to answer Ghazali.

Puric published the video recently, and he captioned it with:

"@onechampionship @johanghazali, @sportskeeda_mma, @nictatkinone"

According to 'The Bosnian Menace,' the 17-year-old phenom is not yet ready for the smoke and the beating that he would give him if the between them would be materialized.

The Team CSK also insisted that he doesn't want to fight up-and-comers and instead be pitted with other top contenders in the promotion, much like what he is doing right now. But Puric says he is open to fighting 'Jojo' if the promotion and fans want to see it.

Ghazali, on the other hand, quickly answered this by commenting on the post:

"A Europe tour??? you look like you just got back from a cake eating competition 😂😂😂. Come on old timer, let's do this."
