UFC Fight Night (9/6/25) Delija makes his UFC debut against Marcin Tybura

When and why did you start training for fighting? I watched a movie called Kickboxer, and then Blood Sport and wanted to train kickboxing but judo was the only sport in my town, so I signed up for it at the age of 7. I trained for 7 years. Later the UFK Gladiator DUBROVNIK gym opened and of course I signed up there immediately. I was 17 years old. 

What professional titles have you held? PFL 2022 World Championship heavyweight winner

What has been your toughest fight to date and why? My first loss, a match against Dion Staring, because I was young, inexperienced and stupid.

Who is your favorite fighter and why? Tom Aspinall. He is the man.

What was your job before you started fighting? Security 

Origin of nickname: It was created long ago, according to my lifestyle.

Personal Life/Background: Married, wife Luči and son Marjan (4 years old)

Who are 3 people you'd love to meet or work with? The Rock, Dana White, Mike Tyson

What are your hobbies, activities or other interests when not training for a fight? Hanging out with my family
