The UFC has signed light heavyweight prospect Ivan Serati (10-2) to a multi-fight contract, reports MMAJunkie.com.
The Italian fighter further deepens the UFC’s 205-pound division, which has cemented itself as the sport’s most talent-rich weight class.
A Cage Rage veteran, Serati has won five-straight bouts including his most recent victory, an August 30th knockout of Claudio da Silva at a No Limits MMA event in Italy.
Serati will reportedly make his UFC debut before the end of the year.

The best thing i can say is he has exciting fights and is a banger which we all like, but he will never amount to anything in LHW
I think he could do well at MW and could cause waves, but he is a big man i don’t think he can boil down to MW.
Good signing for exciting fights but nothing more I think he will be the Chris Lytle of the LHW division.
Thats great and all but is there any news on Tito? Is he in negotiations with Affliction anymore, does Dana want him back? He could be on the next Affliction card with it being moved to January.
yeah ive seen this guy fight no way could he make 185 hes a very big guy reminds me of alexander almost to muscular
I am sorry to say this ,but , Titi Ortiz is done as a fighter . Hasnt won any real fights in a few years ……. was probably his best in 2003 now its five years later .
THE END
I’ve never seen this guy fight. He looks like he’s a monster.
He looks like the twin of that guy Icho Larenas, who fought Tom Murphy at the UFC USA vs Canada ppv.
this guy looks huge…
i am looking forward to seeing his fights…
lookis like he has some deadly punching power!!
This guy does like huge… like James Thompson… but w3il his size help him more than it does Thompson?
look not like…
stoopid keyboard
and will not w3il
stoopid keyboard
Prediction 3-5 fights on Bisbing cards only…
anybody know of any victories that are worth mentioning????
Probably fighting only in Europe.
Seen him fight live when he was destroyed by Vitor Belfort, he destroyed Roman Webber and Lee Hasdall at Cage Rage. He is exciting and comes from a boxing background, ok i dont think he can really cope against the big guns in UFC but he seems to have really progressed in the past 18 months
Tito Ortiz is 99% sure that he will not be re-signing with the UFC,
Tito will have an announcement at the end of this month about his new contract.
Let see how Ivan Serati goes in the UFC
Vitor Belfort didn’t destroy him…Absolutely ! Ivan lost but far from being destroyed. Did u guys watch the match ?
