Geoff Neal, better known as "Handz of Steel", brings a 16-8 record into every walk to the cage — and in a division as crowded as welterweight, every single win matters.

On the feet he's a problem: 5.02 significant strikes a minute at 53% accuracy, and 63% of his wins end in a knockout. The math is bad for anyone standing across from him. Add the southpaw stance, and the puzzle gets harder still.

He's coming off a loss to Uroš Medić. Careers aren't defined by the fall, though; they're defined by the rebound.

Next up: Chidi Njokuani at UFC 330: Makhachev vs. Machado Garry on August 16, 2026. Circle the date.
