Rory Markham Signs with UFC

Sam Caplan is reporting that Rory Markham has signed a contract with the UFC and is expected to make his debut at UFC Fight Night 14.

Markham was a standout in the now (all but) defunct International Fight League with an overall record of 14-4. He most recently fought at the inaugural Adrenaline MMA event last weekend where he won via submission in the first round.

Markham is expected to fight Brodie Farber at UFN 14 on July 19. Other former IFL fighters expected to make their UFC debuts at UFN 14 are Brad Blackburn and Reese Andy.
