Cutelaba managed to win his first fight in his last 4 outings. After losing two consecutive fights against Magomed Ankalaev, he had drawn his last fight against Dustin Jacoby. As for the Jack-Wink MMA trainee, Clark, it was his second consecutive loss. Anthony Smith submitted him in his previous fight.
What’s next for Ion Cutelaba and Devin Clark?
‘The Hulk’ will look to get a higher-ranked opponent in his next fight. The likes of Ryan Spann or other fighters of that echelon make the most sense for him. As for Clark, he will be determined to get back to the winning column in his next fight. A UFC veteran since 2016, ‘Brown Bear’ has won only 2 out of his last 5 fights in the UFC.
