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.

Alexander Volkanovski predicts 'wild' finish of 20-0 Movsar Evloev
Alexander
Volkanovski is brimming with confidence ahead of his next title
defense.

Volkanovski (28-4) is scheduled to defend his
Ultimate Fighting Championship featherweight title against
Movsar
Evloev (20-0) at
UFC 333 on Oct. 24 at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi. The Australian
champion believes he can deliver a career-best performance against
the undefeated Russian.

Alexander Volkanovski doubts Movsar Evloev can outgrapple him
for 25 minutes at UFC 333

Evloev has won all 10 of his UFC bouts by decision, but Volkanovski
doubts the challenger can outgrapple him for five rounds. “The
Great†believes Evloev would need to catch him with a decisive
strike to win.

“Trying to outgrapple me for 25 minutes, I can't see it,â€
Volkanovski told MMA Junkie. “I believe that the only chance that
any of these guys have is for them to catch me… If he thinks he can
beat me by decision or he thinks he can outgrapple me, I'm sure
he's gonna try, we'll see. I'm just very confident in my skills and
the fighter I still am… I think I can do it in pretty wild fashion.
I believe I can get a finish. I believe I can do it inside five… A
lot of people are going to go say after this fight, ‘Is that the
best Volk we’ve ever seen?'â€

Volkanovski first won the title against Max
Holloway in 2019 and defended it five times before losing to
Ilia
Topuria in 2024. He reclaimed the vacant championship against
Diego
Lopes last year after Topuria moved up to lightweight, then
defended it in their rematch in January.
