A 13-year roller coaster ride for Kevin Croom led to one of the most memorable moments of 2020.
On a little over a day’s notice, Croom stepped in for the injured Matt Frevola to take on Roosevelt Roberts at UFC Vegas 10 this past weekend. After landing a clean overhand left that dropped his opponent, Croom picked up a 31-second submission win via standing guillotine to earn his first UFC win, and his first performance bonus to boot.
After an incredible debut, Croom took to Twitter Sunday afternoon to reveal that he only had $64 in his bank account less than a week before.
