OTTAWA — Now that he has a few UFC fights under his belt, Arjan Bhullar can give an honest appraisal of his skill set. And he’s not selling himself short.
The 32-year-old heavyweight prospect held an open workout Thursday at the New Era Combat Sports gym in Kanata, just outside of Ottawa, Ontario, where he will fight Juan Adams on the preliminary portion of Saturday’s UFC on ESPN+ card. Afterwards, he answered questions from fans and media, including what he thinks of persistent comparisons to two-division UFC champion Daniel Cormier.
Like “DC”, Bhullar comes from a decorated wrestling background, winning a gold medal at the 2010 Commonwealth Games that took place in Delhi, India.
