Morgan Charriere, a well-known presence to European MMA fans following his work under the Cage Warriors banner, made his first UFC walk at UFC Fight Night: Gane vs Spivac with high expectations and excitement buzzing around him. The 28-year-old delivered, scoring a first-round knockout win over Manolo Zecchini and lighting up Accor Arena. That night, Charriere admitted to feeling a lot of pressure around his fight.
