In his first fight after The Ultimate Fighter, Hunter Azure won the United Fight League bantamweight title by knocking out Amun Cosme.
Hunter Azure? Yeah, he’s back in the game. And boy, did he make a comeback! He just scored a massive knockout in his first fight post-The Ultimate Fighter. And guess what? He’s got a shiny new belt to show for it.
It all went down on a Saturday evening. The setting? UFL 4 in Chandler, AZ. His opponent? Amun Cosme, who was vying for the United Fight League bantamweight title.
The second round was where the magic happened. Azure, a Fight Ready product, delivered a career-defining moment. He leveled Cosme with a right hand so devastating, it’s still being talked about.

Now, let’s talk about Azure. He’s only 32, but he’s got a ton of high-level experience under his belt. He first entered the UFC in 2019, fresh off the Contender Series.
His run in the promotion wasn’t exactly smooth sailing, though. He went 2-2 before deciding to move back to the regional circuit. Then he joined season 31 of The Ultimate Fighter. Unfortunately, he got knocked out in his first fight and didn’t get a contract back in the UFC.
But hey, with performances like the one on Saturday, who knows? He might just find himself back in the octagon sooner than we think.
