Billy Ray Goff is a Connecticut-born brawler who won his UFC debut by first-round TKO over Yusaku Kinoshita in Singapore in 2023. Seven of his nine career wins have come by knockout, and he throws serious volume - over seven significant strikes landed per minute. The last two years have been rough, though: a decision loss to Trey Waters and a first-round guillotine loss to Ramiz Brahimaj have put him on a two-fight skid. At 28, he badly needs a win here to keep his roster spot, which usually makes fighters like him even more dangerous.
