Court McGee will walk into the Octagon one final time on October 3, when the veteran welterweight competes at UFC 332 in Salt Lake City, Utah, in what he has confirmed will be the last fight of his professional MMA career.
McGee, 41, has been a fixture in the UFC since 2010, when he first appeared on The Ultimate Fighter Season 11. Known as "The Crusher," the Orthodox-stance welterweight out of Factory X has compiled a professional record of 23 wins and 14 losses across a career that has now stretched nearly a decade and a half. The Salt Lake City event will mark his 29th appearance inside the Octagon, a testament to his longevity in one of the sport's most competitive divisions. Standing five-foot-eleven with a 75-inch reach, McGee has averaged 4.6 significant strikes landed per minute throughout his career, along with 1.87 takedown attempts per 15 minutes, showing the well-rounded game that kept him competitive at the UFC level for so long.
An opponent for the bout has not yet been announced.
Why it matters
- McGee's 29th Octagon appearance will place a capstone on one of the longer UFC tenures in the welterweight division
- A hometown-adjacent setting in Salt Lake City gives the Utah-based fighter a fitting sendoff in front of a supportive crowd
- The opponent announcement, when it comes, will shape the competitive context of what figures to be an emotionally charged farewell
