Oezdemir (15-1) is a rising star, notching three victories in 2017. "No Time," as he is known, has used a few flash knockouts to earn a title fight in only his fourth UFC bout. The Swiss wrecking machine will try to dethrone Cormier (19-1, 1 no contest), who has dismantled every UFC fighter not named Jon Jones. Oezdemir talked with the guys about his journey last year, what his future holds and why he hits so damn hard.
