Jack della Maddalena lost his professional debut in a horrible way.
On Saturday evening, on UFC 315, the Australian will try to relieve the Muhammad of the Welterweight title, for a raw crowd in the Bell Center in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
While an underdog goes the competition, many choose the MMA star to pull the upset, especially after Maddalena choked a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu world champion during the training camp.
If the 28-year-old would win at the weekend, he will have completed an incredible story, from a 0-2 hunter to a UFC world champion.

Jack della Maddalena lost a brutal way before his time in the UFC
On March 12, 2016, Jack della Maddalena made his professional debut against Aldin Bates on Eternal MMA 15.
Unfortunately, although he had a bright future, his first walk to the cage could not have gotten worse, with his opponent who explodes brutal shots through the ground and pound that the referee forced to jump in.
A little more than a year later Maddalena made his comeback and recorded Darcy Vendy at Eternal MMA 17.
Unfortunately, his second professional outing did not go much better, with the mixed martial artist succumbing to a first round of choke.
The images of these fights have just turned up again at the UFC 315 Countdown Show, in which Maddalena gave his attitude about the heartbreaking results.
The Aussie explained: “I start my career, I almost just took the most difficult battles I could handle two professional losses in my first two fights.”
Fortunately, the Perth athlete is reflected in a large way in a proof of his warrior spirit and has won 17 consecutive competitions to earn his shot at the biggest prize in sport.

After his early adversity, Maddalena scored nine back-to-back stop stop-stop victories before he got a huge chance of the Contender Series of Dana White.
On September 14, 2021 Set 'JDM' Voet in De Kooi with Ange Loosa, in the biggest game of his career at the time.
Knowing that he needed a big achievement, the sportsman went outside with the intention of producing something special.
In an epic moment, Maddalena hit his opponent cold with a frightening shot.
