Nickal is now 9-1 since transitioning to MMA in 2022. The former NCAA champion has now won back-to-back fights, both by KO/TKO, after suffering the sole loss of his career to Reinier de Ridder last year.
This was Daukaus’ first loss in his second UFC tenure. He returned last year with back-to-back first-minute knockouts of Michel Pereira and Gerald Meerschaert.
