After three UFC fights, all on numbered Pay-Per-View cards, Cody Stamann could be getting used to this as he prepares for number four on Saturday’s UFC 228 card in Dallas.

On paper, it might just be an interesting coincidence, but competing on the biggest stages of the sport is a lot more important than you may expect, as a young fighter gets to be in the big fight atmosphere in the most important venues in the sport.
