American featherweight contender whose slick submission game, iron chin and ability to absorb punishment before landing finishing sequences make him a dangerous threat to any champion.
Brian Ortega is an American featherweight known as 'T-City' whose exceptional submission grappling — he finishes opponents with chokes from any position — makes him one of the most dangerous submission artists in the UFC. His battles with Alexander Volkanovski and Max Holloway have produced some of featherweight's best action. A charismatic and popular figure, Ortega has been a perennial top-five featherweight for several years.
