The 24 year-old is a BJJ and judo specialist and has finished all eight of his opponents by submission, with six of those submissions happening in the first round.
Hettes was originally supposed to debut with the UFC last year at the TUF 12 Finale, but a minor league promoter refused to release him from his contract at the time, leaving him unable to sign a UFC contract then. No debut date or opponent has been set for him yet.
