The UFC has continued to saturate its roster, welcoming seven fighters to the promotion in November of 2022.
Let's take a look at the list:
Marshall is a promising prospect out of New Jersey and is part of the wave of talent flooding in from Dana White's Contender Series. He fought on DWCS 2022: Week 2, one of the most historical nights in the show's history. Marshall beat Connor Matthews by unanimous decision and looked as polished a fighter to ever come off of the Contender Series. He's scheduled to fight Marcelo Rojo the day after publication, at UFC Fight Night: Thompson vs. Holland.
