Welcome to the UFC, Jarjis Danho

A new fighter is on his way to the UFC as part of the promotion's continuing work to bolster their heavier weight classes.

I don't know when, I don't know why, and I don't know how, but it feels like the UFC is out getting more heavyweight talent than ever before. They currently have 10 heavyweights on their roster with two fights or fewer for the promotion, that's more than 25% of their heavyweight talent. Add in another 8 relatively untested light heavyweight fighters and big things are happening... literally. The latest of those is the freshly announced pickup of Syrian heavyweight Jarjis Danho.
