Dan Ige's run in the UFC so far

After earning a victory on Dana White's Contender Series, Dan Ige earned a contract with the UFC and for his first promotional fight, Ige faced Julio Arce at UFC 220 but ended up losing the fight via decision.

Since then, Ige compiled a winning streak in the Octagon as he picked up his first win in the UFC by besting Mike Santiago via first-round TKO at UFC 225. 'Dynamite' then followed up with wins over the likes of Jordan Griffin, Danny Henry, and for his last fight, Ige defeated Kevin Aguilar via unanimous decision.

Ige eventually bounced back in the final round, as he was able to get back in the fight in the third and final round. 'Dynamite' went on to win the bout via split decision and pick up another win inside the Octagon.
