Campbell wears considerably thick-lensed glasses when out of
competition. The Liverpool native seems to be heavily dependent on
them, putting them back on immediately after his fights. Campbell
recently revealed that his eyesight is poor and that his opponents
appear blurry to him until they get close.

across the Octagon

While Campbell tried contact lenses when he was young, he was too
nervous to put them in. The
Ultimate Fighting Championship featherweight eventually got
used to fighting without contact lenses and prefers it this way
now.

“My eyesight is really bad, but at the same time I love my
glasses,†Campbell told Ariel Helwani. “I would never change them…
I tried contacts when I was younger, but I was always too nervous;
I couldn't put them in. So, I got used to fighting without them and
I don't think I've ever gone back since. I've always preferred it
that way… Because of how big the UFC cage is, [my opponent] is
blurry and then once we get closer, it gets a little better.â€

Campbell (9-1) earned his UFC contract with a first-round technical
knockout win on
Dana White's Contender Series last year. He then suffered a
knockout loss to Danny Silva
in his UFC debut in London this past March. “The Pink Pantherâ€
rebounded with a dominant submission win over Trevor Peek
at
UFC Paris.

UFC heavyweight prospect Anthony Wint isn't wasting time rising through the ranks in the promotion's most dangerous division.

Former NFL football player Anthony Wint is one of the best heavyweight prospects in UFC history, and he wasted little time making an impact in his debut. Less than two weeks after earning a UFC contract via Dana White's Contender Series, Wint submitted Terrance Chatman in his promotional debut at UFC Sacramento.

UFC 332 in Salt Lake City features a women's flyweight title headliner between Natalia Silva and Wang Cong. The fight came to fruition after UFC women's flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko suffered an injury and vacated the belt.

Since the Silva vs. Cong announcement, fight fans have labeled UFC 332 one of the worst major events in the promotion's history. Despite the lack of star power in the main event, UFC 332 will feature Wint's return in another intriguing heavyweight matchup.

Anthony Wint added to UFC 332 card with widely criticized headliner

As announced on Tuesday night's DWCS broadcast, Wint will fight Lucas Armand (6-0) at UFC 332 next month in Salt Lake City. Armand will make his UFC debut after he was eyed for a future DWCS event.

Wint earned a UFC contract by knocking out Matt Adams last month at the UFC Apex. Before his recent UFC success, Wint earned wins in Fury FC and Xtreme FC.

Wint made a name for himself as a professional football player before making the full-time transition to Mixed Martial Arts. After four successful seasons at Florida International, Wint signed with the New York Jets for the 2018 season as a backup linebacker.

UFC 332 also features the returns of Payton Talbott, Ateba Gautier, and King Green. If he's victorious at UFC 332, Wint could be on the verge of earning a Top 15 spot in the heavyweight division.
