    Desmond Green

    Desmond Green, former University at Buffalo wrestler, has been added to the card at UFC 210, making his debut in the Ultimate Fighting Championships, the Buffalo News reported Monday.

    Green will go up against Josh Emmett in a lightweight (155-pound) bout on April 8 at KeyBank Center in Buffalo. At the top of the card for the UFC 210 event will feature former Oklahoma State NCAA finalist and two-time Olympic wrestler Daniel Cormier will defend his light heavyweight title Anthony Johnson.

    The 27-year-old Green launched his professional MMA career in April 2012, compiling an overall record of 19-5. Competing for Titan Fighting Championships since 2014, Green is currently on a four-match win streak going back to March 2016, usually fighting welterweight (170 pounds).

    As a Buffalo Bull wrestler, Green was a three-time NCAA qualifier, and a two-time Mid-American Conference (MAC) champ at 149 pounds in 2009 and 2010. Prior to that, the Rochester native was a New York state wrestling champ for Rush-Henrietta High School.
