opponent’s brother is a UFC fighter?„Not at all, but knowing that information, I’m thankful I’m not

UFC fighter Mike Malott
has a brother who also shares his fighting acumen.
Surging Canadian welterweight Malott has been victorious in four of
his first five Octagon appearances. Meanwhile, his brother Jeff
plays left wing for the NHL’s Los Angeles Kings.
Jeff was engaged in a standout scrap with Toronto Maple Leafs
defenseman Brandon Carlo at the Crypto Arnena in Los Angeles during
last Saturday’s game. The duo took the gloves off and traded heavy
blows for which they were penalized. The Maple Leafs eventually
beat the LA Kings 3-1.
Mike congratulated his brother on the entertaining scrap over
social media.
Meanwhile, Carlo had no idea that Mallott’s brother is a UFC
fighter. When he came to know of it, the Colorado native was just
glad to have survived the scrap.
„Not at all, but knowing that information, I’m thankful I’m not
knocked out right now,” Carlos said. “So that’s good to know, and
I’ll definitely do a little bit more research next time.“
Contender Series graduate Mallott finished his first three UFC
opponents before suffering his first loss against veteran contender
Neil
Magny. “Proper” has since bounced back with a unanimous
decision win over Trevin
Giles, going the distance for the first time in his career.
Mallot is now set to face fellow prospect Charlie
Radtke (10-4) at UFC 315 on May 10 at the Bell Centre in
Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Radtke is 3-1 in the UFC and coming off a
first round knockout win over Matthew
Semelsberger.
