ANALYSIS
A Contender Series victory over Otar Tanzilovi earned Musasa a UFC contract back in September. He'll carry an 8-0 professional record into his UFC debut and will look to start strong against an opponent who lost his own debut in February.

Earns contract despite decision
Musasa defeated Otar Tanzilovi via split decision (29-28, 28-29, 29-28) at Dana White's Contender Series 71 on Sept. 10. After the show, he was one of three fighters to be awarded an official UFC contract.
ANALYSIS
Musasa entered this fight with a 100 percent KO/TKO rate over a spotless 7-0-0 record, and while he didn't live up to his "KO Wizard" nickname here, he managed to squeak by with a decision. It could have easily gone the other way, as Musasa was on the wrong end of a 68-to-50 significant strike count, as well as a 4-to-1 takedown tally. Musasa landed more total strikes, had more control time and threatened with a submission, which was ultimately enough to sway the judges. The 25-year-old prospect from Congo will now be the latest addition to the UFC roster.
