"Blonde". That's what they call Derek Brunson, and is part of the UFC middleweight division's deep end, fighting out of the United States — 33 pro fights in, still swinging for a number next to his name.

The record shows a bit of everything: knockouts (12), submissions (4), decisions (8). Well-rounded is an overused word; here it's just accurate. Add the southpaw stance and a 77" reach, and the puzzle gets harder still.

He's 42 now. Fighters at this stage aren't building toward something; they're spending what's left, and that usually makes for the best fights.
