After being hand-picked by Dana White for a UFC contract, Aussie brawler Jim Crute will make his debut for the world's biggest fighting promotion this December in Adelaide.

Crute, 22, has enjoyed an undefeated professional career so far, and a first round TKO win on 'Dana White's Tuesday Night Contender Series' was enough to persuade the UFC to offer him a contract.

The Contender Series is a simple concept - a handful of fights take place, and the winners are offered contracts. But not all the winners, only the few that claim victory in the most impressive fashion.

That meant that even after Crute's win over Chris Birchler, he wasn't sure he had acheived his goal until the end of the night.
