Teddy Ash happy he is ‘battle ready’ for the UFC as he looks to earn a contract on the Contender Series

Teddy Ash knows he probably should have gotten a call from the UFC before now.

With a 14-4 record including wins over several Octagon veterans including Dominique Steele and Seth Baczynski, Ash felt like he would have earned his way to the UFC or at least gotten a shot at a short notice fight before now.

Unfortunately, it didn’t happen but the 29-year-old Canadian refused to get discouraged and he kept hammering away on the regional fight scene just hoping the UFC would finally notice him.

This week, Ash will get his opportunity to prove that he belongs amongst the top fighters in the world when he competes on Dana White’s Contender Series and there is little doubt he’s gunning for that UFC contract.
