Ion 'The Hulk' Cutelaba is one of light heavyweight's most explosive and chaotic fighters. The Moldovan comes out of the gate like a man possessed, blending serious early power with a wrestling base and a frantic, all-action pace that has produced plenty of highlight-reel knockouts - and a few crash-and-burn moments of his own.
His career has been a rollercoaster, including a controversial stretch around his fights with Magomed Ankalaev, but he's remained a durable, dangerous presence in a historically thin division. He's the kind of gatekeeper who can starch anyone early or get caught when his storm runs out of steam.
For new fans, Cutelaba is pure entertainment: he fights with reckless aggression and his bouts rarely play out quietly. If you enjoy the controlled chaos of a fighter swinging for the fences from the opening bell, he's an easy one to root for.
Why fans love Cutelaba
His explosive aggression, knockout power, and unpredictable, all-or-nothing style make him consistently entertaining.
