Peter Sobotta first came to the UFC all the way back in 2009. His first stint with the promotion would last only a year and a half and three fights, all losses. However, the Polish-born athlete, fighting out of Germany hit the regional scene running after getting cut, and rattled off five straight victories—alongside a controversial draw. Four years later, he made his UFC return on the undercard of UFC Fight Night: Munoz vs. Mousasi in Berlin.
Sobotta’s second run with the UFC was much more successful, going 4-3 over six years, including wins over Nicolas Dalby and Ben Saunders.
