LAS VEGAS – Almost one year to the day that Bryce Mitchell was twitching on the canvas, convulsing after a bomb of a punch from Josh Emmett, he’ll step back into the cage for the first time since.

Thug Nasty’ Bryce Mitchell returns at UFC 310 this weekend after a year away from the Octagon, following one of the most devastating knockout losses in UFC history to Josh Emmett. The Arkansas native gets a second chance to shine as he faces Kron Gracie on the main card at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

With a moniker like 'Thug Nasty', an outspoken attitude, and a Deep South accent coupled with mean submission skills, Bryce Mitchell is one of the most entertaining fighters in the modern UFC landscape.
