Career
The longest-reigning UFC light heavyweight champion and later undisputed heavyweight champion, and for a decade the biggest name training in Albuquerque. Banned from Jackson Wink by Mike Winkeljohn in September 2021 following a domestic battery charge and a felony tampering charge; he has since worked out of Jackson’s MMA Acoma. His record also includes a 2012 DUI, a 2015 felony hit-and-run, a 2019 battery plea, a 2020 aggravated DWI, and a 2025 summons for leaving an accident scene. Retired June 2025. He is not a New Mexican and this site does not claim him as one.
