Knockouts continue to pile up
WelterweightUFC
April 27, 2024
Medic defeated Tim Means via TKO (punches) at 2:09 of Round 1 at UFC on ESPN 55 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Medic doesn't get talked about much, but he's shown far more good than bad since debuting in the UFC back in March 2021. His greatest difference-maker has been his power. One lightning-fast uppercut was all it took to put the aging Means away. Now sporting a 4-2 record in six fights with the company, all four of his wins have come via knockout. The one thing Medic does need to clean up moving forward is his submission defense, as both of his defeats have come via that method. The 31-year-old Alaska native remains a fighter to keep an eye on at 170 pounds moving forward. He'll also would go on to take home an extra $50,000 here after winning one of four Performance of the Night bonuses awarded on the evening.

Medic will take on Tim Means in a welterweight matchup at UFC Vegas 91 on April 27, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Medic lost via submission to Myktybek Orolbai back in November, but had been riding a two-fight winning streak prior to that, recording finishes in each. He's a high-volume striker, as is Means, but Medic holds the slight statistical edge in that area with 5.64 significant strikes landed per minute of fight time. Medic will give up an inch in height and four inches in reach to Means.
Taps out to newcomer
WelterweightUFC
November 18, 2023
Medic lost to Myktybek Orolbai via submission (neck crank) at 4:12 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Orolbai accepted this fight four days ago, and it's quite clear at this point Medic wished he hadn't. Uros came out on fire, throwing bombs and connecting on quite a few, but once Orolbai flipped the script and leaned on his wrestling game, Medic was done. He displayed very little awareness in regards to defending on the mat, and his gas tank was quickly drained. He finally tapped out late in Round 2. The 30-year-old Alaska native is 3-2 in his first five UFC bouts, with all three wins coming via knockout and the two defeats via submission. Expect Medic to hover around the .500 mark moving forward.

September 23, 2023
Medic is slated to take on Jonny Parsons at UFC Vegas 82 on Nov. 18, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Medic is riding a two-fight winning streak with wins over Omar Morales (TKO) and Matthew Semelsberger (TKO). The wins bring his overall UFC record to 3-1. His opponent, Parsons, is coming off a win over Danny Roberts via TKO in his debut bout with the company.
Picks up late stoppage win
WelterweightUFC
July 29, 2023
Medic defeated Matthew Semelsberger via TKO (strikes) at 2:36 of Round 3 at UFC 291 on Saturday in Salt Lake City.
ANALYSIS
As the old saying goes, it's now how you start, it's how you finish. Medic showed next to nothing in Round 1 and was in massive trouble following a Semelsberger knockdown. He survived and ended up regaining the momentum in Round 2. All three judges scored a close second frame for Medic, although that was far from guaranteed. A big right hand, a spinning shot and some follow-up strikes closed the show midway through Round 3. A product of Dana White's Contender Series, Medic is 3-1 in the UFC. All three victories have come via knockout and the one defeat was at the hands of a legitimate contender is Jalin Turner. Not a bad start.
