New Zealand’s Navajo Stirling has already created a highlight-reel moment to open the door to the UFC. Now he plans on adding to it as he looks to make an instant impact on the light heavyweight division.
Undefeated at 5-0 as a pro, City Kickboxing product Stirling makes his Octagon debut on Saturday at UFC Fight Night: Covington vs. Buckley in Tampa, Florida, where he’ll face Florida-based Brit Tuco Tokkos in a 205-pound bout.
It’s a chance for 27-year-old Stirling to claim a big win on the big stage, and tee up a big year for the Kiwi fighter in 2025.
