Chris Brown is on a collision course with the UFC.

And no, it’s not the Grammy award-winning singer Chris Brown.

It’s the fighter Chris Brown. Never heard of him? Well, now you have.

A product of Jackson Wink MMA, Brown (5-1) brings a diverse arsenal to the cage. A former Texas state wrestling champion, Brown mixes up his striking and grappling well.

At WXC 84 on Wednesday, he put all aspects of his game on display when he defeated Dana White’s Contender Series competitor Austin Tweedy by first-round TKO.

Prior to WXC 84, Brown turned some heads in his previous fight at LFA 71 in July. The 30-year-old welterweight brutalized Yemi Oduwale to win by second-round TKO.

Check out Brown’s slick striking display in the full fight video above.

Javier Mendez disagrees with Daniel Cormier’s claim that Islam Makhachev more dangerous than Khabib Nurmagomedov

For Javier Mendez, Islam Makhachev is more skilled than Khabib Nurmagomedov but not more dangerous. Daniel Cormier, who also trained under Mendez at American Kickboxing Academy, said UFC lightweight champion Makhachev is even more dangerous than former champ Nurmagomedov was during his prime.
