Cortavious Romious punched his ticket to the UFC with a unanimous decision win over Michael Imperato on the Contender Series on Aug. 20.
“It’s like a dream come true, honestly,” Romious told MMASucka. “Just doing it for 10 years and the hard work has finally paid off. It feels good.”
Romious started his amateur career in March 2015, going 7-3 before launching his professional career in June 2018. Romious got his first Contender Series shot last year, losing to Ramon Taveras. Romious rebounded with a win over Erik Vo in April and was called for another crack at the Contender Series against Imperato.
