Austin Bashi plans on making a “super dirty” UFC debut in 2025.

After making a name for himself under the Lights Out Championship banner, the undefeated featherweight out of West Bloomfield Township, Michigan made his big debut on Dana White’s Contender Series in September and delivered another highlight-reel finish, putting away Dorian Ramos via a second-round rear-naked choke to earn himself a UFC contract.
