Marcin Held (22-4 MMA, 11-3 BMMA) announced on Twitter that he has signed a deal with the UFC. It was announced earlier this month that his Bellator deal was complete and that he was a free agent. Held is 7-2 since 2013, last losing to Will Brooks in November of 2015 Details of the contract weren’t disclosed, and his UFC debut date has not been announced.
Held is nationally ranked in the top 20, in Bellator he managed wins over Derek Anderson, Alexander Sarnavskiy, Patricky Freire, Phillipe Nover and Dave Jansen. He's lost to Will Brooks and Michael Chandler but he's also only 24 years old so he's got a really good upside. This might also be a sign of the Polish UFC event coming soon.
Held has got some viscous leg locks. He will be a nightmare match-up for a lot of guys in the UFC.
