UFC flyweight contender Joshua Van has signaled his willingness to move up in weight for a superfight against former bantamweight champion Petr Yan, according to a report published Saturday.

Van, who competes at 125 pounds, expressed openness to facing Yan, a former 135-pound titleholder, in a catchweight or bantamweight bout. The potential matchup would pit Van's rising momentum against Yan's veteran experience.
