UFC’s Brian Ortega Training Halle Berry, ‘We’re Gonna Drill Her Hard’

EXCLUSIVE

Halle Berry is turning to a UFC stud to get trained up for her new MMA-inspired movie … and Brian Ortega tells us he’s STOKED for the chance to work with the Hollywood megastar. 

Berry is directing and starring in a flick called “Bruised” — about a female MMA fighter who’s trying to be a good mom while beating asses in cage fights. 

So, she hit up Ortega — the #2 ranked UFC featherweight in the world. Also, the guy is a legit badass when it comes to jiu-jitsu.

“My main goal is to get her jiu-jitsu looking dope as f*ck,” Ortega tells TMZ Sports … “We’re gonna drill her hard.”

So, any chance for a possible romance with his new student? After all, Berry selected Ortega as her #ManCrushMonday last month … and said she couldn’t wait to get to get to work with the guy.

Plus, look at Ortega … the dude ain’t so bad looking himself either. 

But, Brian says he’ll keep things strictly professional — he’s not looking to make anyone uncomfortable. Total pro.
