The grandson certainly showed that he carries those ‘Ali’ genes in him as he put on a powerful display of his boxing prowess. Biaggio has fought twice in MMA prior to his PFL debut. Biaggio was defeated by submission in his very first bout at Fusion Fighting League against Devin Rothwell.
However, his next bout was right after two months of his MMA debut, where he balanced the count with a KO victory over Bradley Seaver at the Crown Fighting Championship.

Biaggio Ali Walsh has a younger brother, who is doing his part in the field of boxing. Nico Ali Walsh is currently undisputed in the boxing ring with an impressive record of 7-0-0.
Furthermore, both the brothers are young and yet to face bigger and mightier opponents in their respective fields, but have shown great potential so far. And considering the fact that the world will always judge you on the basis of your boxing icon grandfather, there is always a great deal of pressure that comes along. But both the grandsons seem to have no problem with it and are doing just fine on their own.
