Joseph Holmes
Joseph Holmes goes by an intriguing ring name as the “Ugly Man” and he hails from Arlington, Texas in the United States. He gets to sharpen his skills at the SFS MMA fight stable and represent them in his professional bouts. Holmes is just entering his prime at 26 years old and his six-foot middleweight has a professional MMA record of 7-2. His wins are divided into five submissions and two knockouts while all of his losses came from decisions. After getting his fight contract in Dana White’s Contender Series and picking up a win in Fury FC, Holmes got to debut in the UFC in January 2022. He got humbled by Jamie Pickett after losing via unanimous decision.
Alen Amedovski
Alen Amedovski is a 34-year-old fighter and he came all the way from Zentar, Zupa located in Macedonia. He has been working hard to improve his fighting skills at the American Top Team Rome chapter. Amdeovski stands at five-foot-ten and he has been comfortable competing in the middleweight division. He has only lost twice in ten professional bouts and all of his wins are earned through knockouts. Since earning a fight contract after impressing in Bellator, Amedovski is having a hard time adjusting to the UFC style after losing his last two fights. Among his conquerors were John Phillips and Krzysztof Jotko.
