Roberto Soldić has officially made weight and is set to make his long-awaited UFC debut tomorrow night against Khaos Williams (16-5) at UFC 332 in Salt Lake City.
The 31-year-old Croatian enters the UFC with a 21-4 professional record, including 18 wins by knockout. Soldić returns to 170 pounds after spending his last four MMA fights at 185 pounds, including his time with ONE Championship.
The hard-hitting southpaw built his name in KSW, where he became a two-division champion at welterweight and middleweight. One of the biggest wins of his career came in 2018 against former UFC middleweight champion Dricus Du Plessis. After losing their first meeting, Soldić got his revenge six months later, knocking out Du Plessis in the third round to reclaim the KSW welterweight title.
Now, “Robocop” finally gets his opportunity on MMA’s biggest stage.
Williams provides a tough first test, bringing plenty of UFC experience and knockout power of his own. A victory tomorrow night would give Soldić the 22nd win of his professional career and mark a major start to his UFC run.
Roberto Soldić vs. Khaos Williams takes place tomorrow night, October 3, on the UFC 332 main card.
Frank Sanchez said he’s fighting Hrgovic in December or January (as soon as Hrgo is ready)
