Todd Duffee to debut at UFC 99
By Jim Murphy February 27th, 2009Highly touted American Top Team MMA fighter Todd Duffee will make his UFC debut at UFC 99 in Germany according to a report published by Intheguard.TV:
We were the first to report that the heavyweight rising star from American Top Team, Todd Duffee, signed a 4 fight contract with UFC and was supposed to debut for the organization in UFC 99, the first ever in Germany, scheduled for June 13th in Lanxess Arena.
Now, sources close to Duffee’s camp informed intheguard.tv that the opponent in line is the ADCC European 2005 champion, Mostapha Al Turk, who had a unsuccesful UFC debut being TKO’d in UFC 92 by the hands of Cheick Kongo.
Duffee is either 4-0 or 5-0 in his brief MMA career depending on which record keeping resource you check. He’ll be taking a step up in class against Al Turk, but the Georgia native is considered to be a star of the future in the UFC’s thin heavyweight division.
