The UFC is heading back to Kansas City, Missouri, somewhere they haven’t been since April 2017.
The UFC Kansas City fight card is headlined by two of the men’s featherweight division’s best Max Holloway and Arnold Allen.
A light heavyweight matchup has also been added, as Tanner Boser and Ion Cutelaba will join the fight card on April 15.
Boser To Make UFC Light Heavyweight Debut
A career heavyweight fighter, Tanner Boser will be looking to make his light heavyweight debut on April 15th in Kansas City Missouri. Boser was never a big heavyweight fighter, as he weighed in at only 229 lbs in his most recent split decision loss to Rodrigo Nascimento.
He was one of the lightest heavyweights on the UFC roster but also one of the fastest regarding striking. Sometimes the size mattered as in his most recent loss when he was controlled in the grappling against a much bigger competitor in Nascimento.
Now he gets to utilize his speed and strength at heavyweight in a more suitable weight class at light heavyweight. In his first fight, he gets a matchup against Ion Cutelaba who is a kill-or-be-killed type of fighter who could play right in the hands of Boser.
Many believe this could be his rightful weight class where he can shine and we will all get to see how he performs come April 15th live from the T-Mobile Center.
