UFC fan favorite aims to end losing skid against towering KO artist at UFC 325

Tai Tuivasa and Tallison Teixeira have reportedly agreed to meet at UFC 325 in a clash between hard-hitting heavyweights.

Cam Rowston vs. Cody Brundage - Rowston aiming to build on a surprising debut win over Petroski, while Brundage is somehow still in the UFC. I'd imagine Rowston finishes him.

Jacob Malkoun vs. Torrez Finney - return of Finney!! Battle of the stocky wrestlers. Hard one to call.

Torrez Finney is hilarious. No one likes a boring ln'p wrestler, but the difference with Finney is that no one even tries to defend him. It's just known. If he doesn't get cut first, he may just hump his way to the top. I won't be watching any of it, but it'd be a fun story to track in the background.

Well now we can all celebrate

It's like he's got no control either, he just slings people to the mat over and over again but does fuck all with it, bizarre fighter.

Among Aussies that might fight in this card, I am interested in Quillan Salkild, who KOed Gastelum's little brother, Micallef, who showed slick boxing last time, and Rahiki, who joined on DWCS

He won't make it to the top. He's there because he's very beatable.

"I won't be watching any of it, but it'd be a fun story to track in the background."

He's fun, that's part of the appeal. He isn't good enough and that's part of the fun. When will someone knock that huge block off?

Dude is thiccc. Zero neck. Still somehow has long arms.



He had a stinker in his debut (actual event, not DWCS), but dude has some power. Like you said, a fun fighter. Perfect to round out those fight night cards.

He's literally one of my favourite prospects

What if a bowling ball was a cage fighter?

Seems like a bit of a gimme fight for Rowston, good test for Finney.

Fun fact: Finney actually beat Rowston in their first appearances on the Contender Series.

Looks like the love child of Khalil Rountree and Brad Kohler!

It's hilarious how the ufc is very clearly trying to book finney against guys they think will be able to match his wrestling or stop it. He definitely isn't on the ufcs good side.

Forgot all about this!

Yeah, they felt obliged to sign him when he finally got the finish at the (third?) attempt and showed dedication to keep coming back til that point. But then his debut was a return to form, they definitely are cutting him off his first loss.
