UFC 282 (12/10/22) Koslow was stopped by Cameron Saaiman via strikes at 4:13 of the third round 

When and why did you start training for fighting? I started karate at 9 years of age and MMA at 15 years of age.  Honestly, because I wanted to beat up my dad.

What ranks and titles have you held? Combat Night Champion

Do you have any heroes? My Mother for a lot of reasons. She’s always believed in me and encouraged me to follow my dreams and accomplish my goals in the fight game.

What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? It means everything. What started off as a dream as a kid turned into a goal as an adult and has now become reality. I’m excited to be where I’ve known I belonged all along.

Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? No

What was your job before you started fighting? I’ve done a little bit of everything, from construction to working on a weed farm.

Ranks in any martial arts styles: Brown belt in BJJ

Favorite grappling technique: Rear naked choke

Favorite Striking technique: The Jab
