UFC 174: 11 Matches To Make For The Winners

11. Jason Saggo

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-O_nNS07WW0 Saggo entered Saturday's match against Josh Shockley as a virtual unknown, opening the Fight Pass prelims, though his bout wound up televised as the preliminary card had time leftover in the broadcast. Entering the night with a 9-1 record and fighting since 2009, his only loss was to Jesse Ronson, who made it to the UFC himself recently only to go 0-2 with a third fight pending. Saggo's known now, with a solid KO in his debut. The fighter PEI fighter, with nine finishes in ten fights counting the Shockley win, has earned himself another go in the organization, but you can expect him to have to work his way off Fight Pass and onto the prelims, at least in the short term. He'll be booked against either another prospect or a promotional newcomer. The winner of Dashon Johnson versus TUF Nations alum Jake Matthews at UFC Fight Night: Te Huna vs. Marquardt on June 28th fits nicely, or Tae Hyun Bang, who hit the jackpot with a win of his own this past Saturday.
