Ige made his UFC debut back in January 2018 but suffered a decision loss, a frustrating result for anyone hoping to fulfill their fighting dream. But he’s since bounced back in fine fashion and has earned four straight wins in the octagon.
Ige (12-2 MMA, 4-1 UFC) returns to action at next Saturday’s UFC 248 at Toyota Center in Houston, where he takes on fellow featherweight Mirsad Bektic (13-2 MMA, 6-2 UFC). A student of the game, Ige knows he’s facing a highly respected contender who represents a dangerous foe, even after a few recent losses to Josh Emmett and Darren Elkins.
A win over a proven commodity like Bektic would certainly be a big step for Ige, one which a manager would likely use to try and leverage his client into advantageous scenarios.
