And frankly, despite what the naysayers have to put out on social media, Wilson has paid his dues to get here. Owner of a 16-7 pro record with all wins coming via knockout or submission, Wilson may not have an array of former UFC fighters on that slate, but what he hasn’t done on fight night has been done in the gym, where he has worked with the likes of Josh Burkman, Clay Collard, Court McGee, Raymond Daniels, Kelvin Gastelum, Alex Perez and Christos Giagos. And for the last three-and-a-half years, he’s called Simpsonville, South Carolina home, where he has spent time battling it out with the likes of Stephen Thompson, Chris Weidman and Chase Hooper.
Ready? Yeah, Wilson is ready.
From being the American in a Brazilian jiu-jitsu academy and a missionary in New York, to the father of three and software company owner who still knows what a $200 payday looks like, he’s got 15 minutes or less to show Brito just what role life experience plays in a fight. And if that’s the deciding factor, maybe Wilson isn’t the underdog after all.
