Perhaps at the end of the plank, Jordan Wright can ill afford another misstep in the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
The Texas native will look to put a stop to a three-fight losing streak when he takes on “The Ultimate Fighter” Season 30 finalist Zac Pauga in the UFC Fight Night 219 co-main event on Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Wright enters the Octagon the heels of consecutive defeats—all of them finishes—to Bruno Silva, Marc-Andre Barriault and Dusko Todorovic. His record in the UFC currently sits at 2-4, with victories over Isaac Villanueva and Jamie Pickett allowing him to maintain his tenuous spot on the roster.
