GrapplingStriking
Texas-based featherweight who needed three Contender Series appearances before landing a UFC contract in 2023. He is a heavy-handed puncher who aims almost everything at the head and rarely grapples, with eight of his ten wins by finish. His last outing set the UFC record for knockdowns in a single fight, dropping Mohammad Yahya six times in July 2025, and he has not competed since; career stats are withheld here given the two-fight UFC sample.
