For Grant Dawson, an Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) contract was simply destiny.
Dawson competed on the latest edition of Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series. He earned a submission victory over Adrian Diaz. After the fight, Dawson was awarded a UFC contract.
MMAJunkie.com caught up with Dawson after the fight and he said the timing feels right:
“I wanted to be in the UFC when I was 15 years old, when I decided to fight. I was 15 years old, and all I imagined is pressing my face and the bright lights and big fights. So this is natural to me. I’ve thinking about this. This is what I want. I have it. I’ve been here before. All right.”
