The Whittier native takes another step in his pursuit of a lifelong dream when he faces undefeated Lerone Murphy in the UFC 319 co-main event in Chicago.

Both men made weight, with the undefeated Murphy registering at 146 pounds, while Murphy was on championship weight at 145 on the nose. Check out the video below to see their UFC 319 official weigh-ins.

He’ll have his hands full with the unbeaten Murphy. Murphy made his UFC debut back in 2019 where he fought to a draw. Since then, he’s gone 8-0 and in his last fight, he won a decision over the incredibly dangerous Josh Emmett in a fight night main event.
