Shannon Ross, better known as "The Turkish Delight", brings a 13-9 record into every walk to the cage — and in a division as crowded as flyweight, every single win matters.
He fights at a pace most of the division can't hold — 5.96 strikes landed a minute, every minute. By round three, opponents are usually fighting his fight.
The last fight went to HyunSung Park (KO/TKO (Punch) R2) — a setback, and the interesting question is always what a fighter does with one.
He's 37 now. Fighters at this stage aren't building toward something; they're spending what's left, and that usually makes for the best fights.
