Lawrence Lui Prepares for UFC Debut Against Hector Santiago

Lawrence Lui from New Zealand is gearing up for his UFC debut at UFC Fight Night: Nurmagomedov vs Song, marking a significant moment in his career.

He secured his place in the UFC after winning the Road to UFC tournament, culminating in a split-decision victory over Sulangrangbo at UFC 325 in Sydney. This follows his earlier success in the tournament, where he achieved a second-round TKO against Nghiem Van Y in Shanghai.

With a professional record of 8-1, Lui feels confident as he prepares to face fellow debutant Hector Santiago in Shanghai. He acknowledges the support from his training at City Kickboxing gym, which has been instrumental in his development as a fighter. Lui is eager to showcase his skills and is looking forward to the challenge posed by Santiago, who is known for his striking ability.
