Filed under: Blue Corner , News , UFC Andre Soukhamthath thought with a loss at UFC Fight Night 123, he certainly would be on the chopping block. Soukhamthath (12-5 MMA, 1-2 UFC) took his fight with Luke Sanders (11-2 MMA, 1-2 UFC) on just two weeks’ notice earlier this month and was a big underdog. But he took out Sanders with a second-round TKO for his first UFC win after back-to-back split-decision losses to start his tenure in the promotion. Now the UFC has rewarded him with what he’s calling an “early Christmas gift.” Soukhamthath posted a video on his Instagram feed saying he had just signed a new five-fight deal with the promotion – and he teased a fight announcement coming soon. Soukhamthath came to the UFC earlier this year as CES MMA’s bantamweight champion and on a three-fight winning streak of knockouts
