William Knight has a 100% win finishing rate in his professional MMA career.
William is an example of some of the new talent coming off of DWCS. Knight didn’t get a contract to the UFC in his first Contender Series fight in 2019 because he was too green skillwise as a fighter.
But at the beginning of this month, Knight got a first round finish on his second chance on Contender Series, receiving the contract, and is now ready to produce highlight reel finishes in the UFC.
William is a physical specimen, that has amazing cardio for his size and some high flying and impressive striking output that is sure to please fans.
VICIOUS ground and pound!
👊 William Knight with the absolute POWER to end it.
