The UFC's recent heavyweight binge feels almost a bit unreal. This is a promotion that has struggled for years to bring in fresh talent to everything above middleweight and has largely restocked its fighters there with its Strikeforce acquisition. Beyond that, pickings have been slim. But now, whatever the reason, we're seeing a flood of 206+ lb talent. The latest of these is French Heavyweight Cyril Asker. His signing was first reported by EFC Africa, where Asker was their Heavyweight champ. While it hasn't been made official yet, he is expected to debut on the Croatia card, against a yet to be named opponent.
Welcome to the UFC, Asker & Hadzovic
