Charalampos Grigoriou now has his foot planted firmly in the Ultimate Fighting Championship door.
The Serra-Longo Fight Team bantamweight will make his promotional debut opposite Chad Anheliger as part of the undercard this Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Grigoriou enters the cage having rattled off four consecutive victories, all of them finishes. Oddsmakers have already installed the former Combat FC champion as a 2-to-1 favorite.
Grigoriou nailed down his spot on the UFC roster via Dana White’s Contender Series, as he put away Fury Fighting Championship titleholder Cameron Smotherman with punches in the first round of their Week 2 pairing on Aug.
