Steven Asplund is a 28-year-old Minnesota heavyweight who punched his way into the UFC with a 16-second demolition on Dana White's Contender Series in 2025. Six of his seven wins are knockouts, and his output is absurd for the division — over 10 significant strikes landed per minute, roughly triple a normal heavyweight's pace. He battered Sean Sharaf in his official debut before dropping a decision to former light heavyweight prospect Vitor Petrino in March 2026, a fight where he still landed his share. Nicknamed Concrete, he fights like a man trying to finish the night early — for better or worse.
