LAS VEGAS – There’s typically plenty to roll eyes at or be critical of in the MMA space, but sometimes a feel-good moment can make even the most jaded of fans crack a smile.
That may happen in the case of Cortavious Romious, who Tuesday won a UFC contract after a hard-fought win on Dana White’s Contender Series. Romious (9-2 MMA, 0-0 UFC) outworked Michael Imperato with a trio of 30-27 scores in their bantamweight fight on the show, and now his next fight will be for the world’s biggest MMA promotion.
It’s also where he’s likely to make the most amount of money as a rookie – and it sounds like that will come in handy.
