First, though, he needs to put in the work, and on Saturday, Gable Steveson will try and put together another highlight reel moment when he goes head to head with Sean Sharaf.

Gable Steveson wants to prove a point
“I feel like he's [Sharaf] really excited to go out there and say, ‘Hey, I fought Gable Steveson.' It's kind of like when Mike Tyson went against Peter McNeeley,†Steveson said, via MMA Junkie. “Peter McNeeley was out here talking [to] the whole world, everybody, saying, ‘Hey, I got the chance to fight Mike Tyson.' Saturday will be that day for him and he'll go to be a regular citizen after that.â€
