With his back seemingly against the wall, Tyson Nam had a banner night in the octagon this past weekend.
Nam picked up his first UFC victory with a ferocious, 32-second KO win over Zarrukh Adashev at UFC on ESPN 10. In addition, “The Naminal” earned his first performance bonus with the promotion.
Just days after the win, Nam joined MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck to recap the finish in Las Vegas, talks showing fans in the U.S. what he’s been doing overseas for years, the short notice change in opponent, what life was like after losing his second consecutive fight in the UFC, having a full-time training camp for the first time in his carer, Jordan Espinosa’s call out and what he wants next.
