Feeny to test middleweight on Feb 1

Torez Feeny, a 27-year-old American listed at about 172.7 cm, is attempting to establish himself in the middleweight ranks despite being notably shorter than many opponents.

He reportedly transitioned from college football and wrestling into pro MMA in 2022 and earned a UFC contract after multiple Contender Series wins.

Sources say Feeny relies on strength and wrestling as his primary tools and made his octagon debut last May.

Feeny is scheduled to face Jacob Malkoun on February 1 at UFC 325, a matchup being viewed as an important gauge of his viability at 185 pounds.

Observers are reportedly split on whether his stature will limit him against taller middleweights, making this bout a crucial test.
