To say that Mickey Gall’s first five years with the UFC have been eventful would be an understatement.
Since being signed in 2015 from Dana White’s Lookin’ for a Fight show after just one pro bout, Gall has fought former WWE Superstar CM Punk, highly touted prospect Sage Northcutt, inaugural Ultimate Fighter winner Diego Sanchez, and was once scheduled to fight former interim welterweight champion Carlos Condit before a detached retina forced Condit out of the meeting.
When you compare it to those names, Gall’s dominant first-round win over Jordan Williams at UFC Vegas 32 seems relatively inconsequential, even though it was further evidence of the 29-year-old’s potential.
