Roland Camille Roger Delorme (born December 18, 1983) is a Canadian mixed martial artist currently fighting in the bantamweight division in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. He was a competitor on Spike TV's The Ultimate Fighter: Team Bisping vs. Team Miller.[1]
MMA career
Early career
Delorme amassed a 6–1 record before going on The Ultimate Fighter, fighting exclusively in his native Canada.
The Ultimate Fighter
Delorme was picked last for Team Miller after beating B.J. Ferguson by triangle choke in the preliminary fights. He did not make the semi-finals, as he lost to TJ Dillashaw by submission at the end of the second round after being outwrestled and constantly being taken down throughout the fight.
Ultimate Fighting Championship
Delorme fought Josh Ferguson at The Ultimate Fighter 14 Finale, winning via submission in the third round.[2]
Delorme fought Nick Denis on May 5, 2012 at UFC on Fox: Diaz vs. Miller, replacing an injured Johnny Bedford.[3] He beat Denis by rear-naked choke at 4:59 of an action-packed first round where both fighters were rocked until Delorme rallied and submitted Denis.
Delorme was briefly linked to a bout against promotional newcomer Bibiano Fernandes on July 21, 2012 at UFC 149.[4] However, Fernandes did not sign with the UFC. Delorme instead faced Francisco Rivera at the event.[5] He lost via KO at 4:19 of the first round. The result, however, was later changed to a No Contest when it was revealed Rivera had tested positive for a banned substance.[6]
Delorme faced Edwin Figueroa on June 15, 2013 at UFC 161.[7] He won the exciting back-and-forth fight by unanimous decision.
Delorme then faced Alex Caceres on September 21, 2013 at UFC 165.[8] He lost the back-and-forth fight via split decision.
Delorme is expected to face Davey Grant on March 8, 2014 at UFC Fight Night 37.[9]
