UFC Signs Major Prospect Chad Corvin

ProMMA is reporting that the UFC has signed heavyweight prospect Chad Corvin. Corvin had the following to say to to ProMMA:

It’s an honor. It’s what everybody hopes for in our line of work, like a minor league baseball player being called up to the majors. I’d like to match up with somebody in the same position as me, new in the UFC, new to the program, and just work my way up. I’m at the bottom right now, so I’ll start at the bottom and go up. It came as a surprise. I was on YouTube and put my name in [the search box] so I could watch one of my fight videos and I saw something new (The Ultimate Fighter Alternate Heavyweights Part 1 mentioned above) and saw I was number one on the list. Josh [Johnson] contacted me a few days later and told me there were a couple contract offers. It was a big surprise because I’m just an average guy working for a living.

Corvin is currently 6-0 with three wins coming in under one minute and the other three taking him less than two minutes. His wins have taken a total combined time of five minutes fifty-four seconds.

Here’s video of Chad’s fifth pro fight:
