After successful his first 4 professional fights in simply over 5 minutes complete, Despaigne acquired his shot within the UFC, debuting at UFC 299 in March. “The Large Boy” lived as much as his regional hype by delivering a powerful 18-second end of Josh Parisian on the Miami pay-per-view occasion. The 36-year-old was not lengthy for the UFC world as he misplaced his subsequent two fights to Waldo Cortes-Acosta and Austen Lane, who each used grappling heavy sport plans to earn their resolution victories.

Despaigne formally signed with Karate Fight in November, and wasted little time making his mark on the promotion.
