Perth boxer-puncher who became the first Australian UFC welterweight champion by beating Belal Muhammad in May 2025, then dropped the belt to Islam Makhachev six months later. A third-round TKO loss to Carlos Prates in May 2026 put him on a two-fight skid. Twelve of his 18 wins have come by knockout.
