First-Round Finisher
One-punch power · Southpaw counters · Fast starts
GrapplingStriking

Uroš Medić grew up in Novi Sad, Serbia, starting judo as a kid before falling in love with striking, and now he gets to headline the UFC's first-ever card in his home country. Every single one of his 13 pro wins has come by finish — 11 knockouts and 2 submissions — and he has never once heard a judge's scorecard read in victory. He enters Belgrade on a three-fight knockout streak, with none of those wins lasting 90 seconds. Now training at Kings MMA in California, the ranked welterweight is the biggest star in Serbian MMA and the reason this event exists.
