Anthony Wint Gears Up for Second Fight in Rapid Succession at UFC 332

September 10, 2026Diego Herrera2 мин

UFC heavyweight contender Anthony Wint is quickly making his mark in the division, with another fight scheduled less than two months after his debut. The former NFL player, who secured a UFC contract through Dana White's Contender Series (DWCS), made a strong first impression by submitting Terrance Chatman at UFC Sacramento.

His next appearance will be at UFC 332 in Salt Lake City. This event, headlined by a women's flyweight title bout between Natalia Silva and Wang Cong, has faced criticism for lacking star power. However, Wint's inclusion adds an intriguing heavyweight matchup to the card.

Wint is set to face undefeated Lucas Armand (6-0) at UFC 332. Armand, who was previously slated for a DWCS appearance, will now make his promotional debut against Wint.

Prior to his recent UFC success, Wint earned a knockout victory over Matt Adams on DWCS, solidifying his path to the UFC. His previous MMA wins include victories in Fury FC and Xtreme FC. Before transitioning to mixed martial arts, Wint had a career in professional football, including a season with the New York Jets as a backup linebacker following a successful college career at Florida International.

Other notable fighters returning at UFC 332 include Payton Talbott, Ateba Gautier, and King Green. A victory for Wint at this event could position him for a potential Top 15 ranking in the heavyweight division.

Anthony Wint's Rapid Rise: Second UFC Bout Scheduled for UFC 332

UFC heavyweight prospect Anthony Wint is set to compete in his second fight within a 43-day span at UFC 332 in Salt Lake City. The former NFL player, who recently earned a UFC contract via Dana White's Contender Series, will face undefeated newcomer Lucas Armand.

Wint made a significant impact in his promotional debut at UFC Sacramento, securing a submission win less than two weeks after earning his contract. His upcoming bout at UFC 332, which is headlined by a women's flyweight title fight between Natalia Silva and Wang Cong, adds an intriguing element to an event that has been criticized for its perceived lack of star power.

Armand, who holds a perfect 6-0 professional record, will be making his UFC debut at the Salt Lake City event. Wint's path to this point includes a prior DWCS knockout victory over Matt Adams and wins in regional promotions like Fury FC and Xtreme FC. Prior to his MMA career, Wint played professional football, spending time with the New York Jets as a linebacker.

The UFC 332 card also features the returns of Payton Talbott, Ateba Gautier, and King Green. A win for Wint could significantly advance his standing in the highly competitive heavyweight division.
