Mixed martial arts career
The Ultimate Fighter
In September 2012, it was announced that Wilkinson was selected for The Ultimate Fighter: The Smashes.
Wilkinson had his first fight against Grant Blackler of the Australian team. Wilkinson defeated Blackler in the first round via submission. Leading up to his next fight in the tournament, which was set to be against Colin Fletcher, Wilkinson was injured in training and was replaced by Australian Richie Vaculik. Wilkinson was still given a chance to earn a UFC contract at the Finale.
Ultimate Fighting Championship
Despite getting injured leading up to his second fight on The Ultimate Fighter: The Smashes, Wilkinson was given a fight in the UFC. He faced Brendan Loughnane at UFC on FX 6. Wilkinson was victorious via unanimous decision.
Wilkinson next fought Rony Jason at UFC on Fuel TV 10.[1] Jason defeated Wilkinson by technical submission due to a triangle choke in the first round, giving Wilkinson his first professional MMA loss.
After more than a year out of action, Wilkinson returned to the octagon on October 4, 2014 at UFC Fight Night: Nelson vs. Story and fought Niklas Bäckström.[2] Wilkinson won the fight via KO due to punches in the first round. The win also earned him his first Performance of the Night bonus award.[3]
Wilkinson was expected to face Alan Omer on June 20, 2015 at UFC Fight Night 69.[4] However, Wilkinson suffered a shoulder injury and was removed from the card.[5]
Wilkinson faced Makwan Amirkhani on February 27, 2016 at UFC Fight Night 84.[6] He lost the fight by unanimous decision and was subsequently released from the promotion.[7]
