Hey Fight Fans! No UFC fights this week, but no worries, we’ve got a new type of Challenge this weekend. Collectors can choose their path - collect or burn to earn a limited edition Fandom tier Moment of Julio Arce.
Julio Arce appeared on the first season of Dana White’s Contender Series, defeating Peter Petties via TKO in the second round. Even with the win, it wasn’t until he stepped up on short notice to face featherweight contender Dan Ige at UFC 220 when he got his shot in UFC. Arce took advantage of the opportunity, defeating Ige via unanimous decision in the fight.
After going 2-2 in his next four fights at featherweight with victories over Julian Erosa and Daniel Teymur, Julio Arce made the move down to 135 lbs to compete in UFC’s bantamweight division. In his debut at bantamweight, Arce faced off against a long, rangy striker in Andre “The Highlight” Ewell. Even with a five inch reach disadvantage, Arce quickly found a home for his left hand, rocking Ewell with a big shot early in the first round.
Arce found even more success striking in the second round, landing strikes at all levels and dropping Ewell’s guard with heavy body shots. Late in the second round, Arce connected with a big left hand, putting Ewell on skates back against the fence. Sensing the finish, Arce pressed forward, connecting with big shots in the blitz, until the referee had seen enough, earning the standing TKO victory.
