Profile
Overview Eric Nolan's first UFC win came by knockout in the third round, and it came after two straight losses. The Welterweight from Edison, NJ, who fights as "Night Time," stands 1-2 in the UFC and carries a one-fight win streak into his next bout.
His professional record across all promotions is 9-5-0.
UFC Career Nolan debuted at UFC 319 and lost to Baisangur Susurkaev by submission in Round 2, at 2:01. His second UFC fight went the distance: a unanimous decision loss to Farman Hasanov at UFC Fight Night: Fiziev vs. Torres.
Then the turnaround. At UFC 332, he stopped Court McGee at 3:26 of Round 3.
One finish, and it came late.
Fighting Style Nolan lands strikes at a better rate than the UFC average and defends them better too, so he gives up little on the feet. Takedowns are not part of his game: he shoots far less than most, and his submission attempts are equally scarce.
His one UFC win came by knockout, not by grappling. Both of his losses ended on the mat or the scorecards, and one of them was a submission.
Notable Wins - Court McGee — KO/TKO, Round 3, UFC 332: Silva vs. Wang (2026)
