As far as UFC debuts go, heavyweight prospect Chris Tuchscherer’s (17-2
MMA, 0-1 UFC) was certainly one of the most memorable in recent history.
Of course, that’s not necessarily a positive thing.
Tuchscherer’s first octagon appearance took place at this past August’s
UFC 102 event, and the bout was marred by the Minnesota Mixed Martial
Arts Academy fighter receiving a brutal low blow from opponent Gabriel
Gonzaga. Tuchscherer makes his return at Saturday night’s UFC 109 event
in Las Vegas, and barring another unfortunate shot, he’s ready to shine.
