LAS VEGAS – Despite just one victory in his past six octagon appearances, Ion Cutelaba isn’t stressing about his job security going into UFC Fight Night 215 . Cutelaba (16-8-1 MMA, 5-7-1 UFC) returns to action Saturday when he meets Kennedy Nzechukwu (10-3 MMA, 4-3 UFC) in the light heavyweight co-headliner at the UFC Apex. The card streams on ESPN+, and will represent a key moment in Cutelaba’s career. Although his fights are consistently exciting one way or another, Cutelaba has lost back-to-back bouts and had his hand raised just once dating back to February 2020. He’s getting into the danger zone of when the UFC historically parts ways with struggling athletes, but Cutelaba said he’s not more concerned about that possibility now than he’s been ahead of any other fight.
