The UFC has signed Heinisch (13-3 MMA, 2-2 UFC) to a new four-fight deal, according to the middleweight fighter. Heinisch announced the deal in an interview with TheScore on Monday.
Heinisch’s new contract comes as he looks to snap a two-fight losing skid. After winning his first two UFC fights against Cezar Ferreira and Antonio Carlos Junior, Heinisch dropped back-to-back unanimous decisions against Derek Brunson and Omari Akhmedov.
