Vallejos defeated Cam Teague via TKO (punches) at 2:23 of Round 1 at Dana White's Tuesday Night Contender Series. After the show, he was one of five fighters to be awarded an official UFC contract.
ANALYSIS
Vallejos looked the part of a (-350) betting favorite early, as his boxing was on point, and he was mixing things up with leg kicks as well. It didn't take long for Vallejos to find and break his opponent's chin, and referee Kevin MacDonald was forced to step in. The 22-year-old prospect will carry a 14-1-0 record into the UFC's featherweight division.
