Matt Sayles is 27 years old and stands at 5’7″ tall, with a 67.5″ reach. Sayles isn’t the largest fighter on paper but with his metabolism slowing down and after more than two years away from the sport it was a very safe choice for him to move up in weight.
Matt will be a fighter to watch on the scales and in the octagon as he makes his UFC debut in the 155lb division.
