2021 PFL Light Heavyweight Chris Camozzi: New Beginnings
It’s never too late for a fresh start.
UFC veteran Chris Camozzi spent a chunk of 2020 outside of a formal training environment. It was a step or step back, to be more accurate that he needed in order to get going in the right direction.
Camozzi’s storied career now spans a decade and a half. He made his pro debut when he was 19 years old and went 12-3 through his first 15 outings. He eventually made it onto
The Ultimate Fighter in the show’s 11th season. He was only 23 years old at the time, and while he won his fight to get into the house, an injury prevented any further advancement. Camozzi didn’t get to go through the TUF season, but a win on the show’s finale event was enough to secure a UFC roster spot.
