Heavyweight Details His Journey To The Octagon And The Goals He Has Heading Into His Second Year On The Roster
Steven Asplund made his professional MMA debut on November 11, 2023, where, in true “Concrete” fashion, he earned the win in just 11 seconds.
Less than two years later, Asplund would get the opportunity to compete on Dana White’s Contender Series for a chance to earn a UFC contract.
When I spoke with the heavyweight earlier this week, I mentioned how there wasn’t a lot of time in between his pro debut and his DWCS fight; before I could even ask if the journey was faster or shorter than expected, he stopped me, as if he realized for the first time how impressive the journey he has been on is.
