Featherweight reaches 3-0 in the UFC after defeating Marwan Rahiki.
San Jose, Costa Rica, September 21, 2026 -- Tommy “Gun” McMillen, an Americas Cardroom ambassador, moved to 12-0 professionally with a unanimous decision over Marwan Rahiki at Noche UFC last Saturday at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona.

After a difficult second round, McMillen delivered a third-round knockdown, sustained pressure and effective grappling. He previously stopped Manolo Zecchini in April and Alberto Montes in July, landing a UFC three-round record of 252 significant strikes against Montes.
“I had the time of my life in there,” McMillen said afterward.
In his second fight as an Americas Cardroom ambassador, McMillen also shared his interest in online poker through fight-week clips of play between training activities. He wants to fight again before the end of 2026, with his next opponent unconfirmed.
