Da’Mon Blackshear aims to make history at UFC 292, TKO Mario Bautista in first round

BOSTON – Da'Mon Blackshear will make a record-tying turnaround at UFC 292.

Blackshear (14-5-1 MMA, 2-1-1 UFC) will step in for an injured Cody Garbrandt against Mario Bautista (12-2 MMA, 6-2 UFC) seven days after his most recent fight Saturday at TD Garden in Boston. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and ESPN+.

Fresh off just the third Twister submission in UFC history this past Saturday at UFC on ESPN 51, Blackshear will look to make even more history. His seven-day turnaround will tie Loopy Godinez for the shortest gap between UFC fights in modern company history, and he also has the opportunity to set the modern-era record with two UFC wins in seven days.
