Welcome to the UFC Cain Carrizosa

The UFC adds another Cain to their roster. Joining UFC Heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez, will be Lightweight Cain Carrizosa. Carrizosa is set to face fellow newcomer Chris Wade at UFC 177. Carrizosa was my #27 Lightweight prospect prior to signing with the UFC. He’s definitely a powerhouse-type fighter with great size for the division, standing 6’0 tall.

Carrizosa has never competed outside of California, having primarily competed for the Tachi Palace Fights promotion. He also fought once on a Bellator undercard in 2013. Carrizosa hasn’t faced top-level competition thus far in his career. The biggest name under his belt is a 2011 decision win over Featherweight prospect Daniel Romero.
