Cam Rowston finished Brandon Holmes inside the first round on Dana White's Contender Series and immediately secured a UFC debut slot for UFC Perth. Rowston intends to make his debut on home soil in Australia, expecting strong support from friends and family. He envisions a bloody, three-round war that ends in a split-decision victory and values the anticipation of a hard-fought win. Rowston turned away from a partying lifestyle in his early 20s after training with UFC-experienced teammates Richie Walsh and Brendan O'Reilly, which convinced him he could pursue MMA professionally.
"I really wanted to make my UFC debut on home soil in Australia. I've got friends in Sydney, family all over Australia, and I know they're going to turn up for this one,"
"In my perfect world, I have a three-round war, blood everywhere, cuts, and I'm standing there with the referee, and he calls it and it's a split decision, I get my hand raised,"
"It's the best feeling ever. The anticipation of winning, it's like, that's what I live for."
"'A rising tide floats all boats, and I was just getting better and better. They were taking me down all the time, and then eventually they stopped taking me down so much. I started hitting them a little bit more, they were hitting me a little bit less.'"
