Ion Cutelaba
Before stopping Bosser last time, Ion Cutelaba lost three consecutive fights. The 30-year-old started life as a wrestler competing in Greco-Roman and European Sambo events. He debuted in the UFC in 2016 and has recorded more losses than wins in the elite promotion. This may not be unconnected to his flamboyant way of fighting, which excites his fans and the matchmakers. His 2022 loss to Kennedy Nzechukwu, Johnny Walker, and Ryan Spann preceded “the Hulk’s” TKO of Boser.
