No one in mixed martial arts swings for the fences with any more vigor than Ultimate Fighting Championship flyweight Tyson Nam.
The 39-year-old Hawaiian will attempt to improve upon a 3-4 record inside the Octagon when he tests his wits and fists against the unbeaten Azat Maksum as part of the UFC on ESPN 49 undercard this Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Nam has lost two of his past three bouts. He last competed at UFC Fight Night 221, where a Bruno Silva rear-naked choke put him to sleep in the second round of their March 11 confrontation.
