Bilal Hasan certainly appears to fit the description as it relates to what the Ultimate Fighting Championship likes in potential recruits.
Already well-established as one of the sport’s top regional talents, the 24-year-old Honolulu native retained his Cage Fury Fighting Championships flyweight title with a fourth-round technical knockout of Jason Eastman in the CFFC 143 headliner on June 6 at 4 Bears Casino and Lodge in New Town, North Dakota. Hasan unwound the American Top Team rep with a front kick to the body and follow-up punches 1:46 into Round 4.
