Nick
\nGalanti<\/a> worked with a
\nDana White\u2019s Contender Series<\/a> alum ahead of his appearance on
\nthe show.<\/p>\n

Galanti (8-1) opened the action on
\nWeek 3<\/a> of DWCS 2026 in a middleweight clash against Carlos
\nPetruzzella<\/a> (15-2). While Galanti is known for his wrestling,
\nhe floored Petruzzella with a right hook and finished him with
\nground-and-pound in just 35 seconds.<\/p>\n

\nPetruzzella<\/h2>\n

Galanti later revealed that he has been working with former
\n
\nUltimate Fighting Championship<\/a> fighter Karl
\nRoberson<\/a> to develop his striking. While he originally hoped for
\na head-kick knockout, he is just as happy to have earned a UFC
\ncontract with a right hook.<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone says I\u2019m just a grappler, but I have been working with my
\nguy Karl Roberson, UFC vet, Glory vet; he had one of the fastest
\nknockouts,\u201d Galanti said in his post-fight interview. \u201cThe whole
\ntime I was calling that right hook. I love that right hook in open
\nstances. I was hoping for a head-kick knockout, but I think it got
\nhooked up.\u201d<\/p>\n

Roberson had earned his UFC contract with a 15-second knockout of
\nRyan
\nSpann<\/a> in the first season of DWCS in 2017. Galanti\u2019s teammate
\nLuke
\nFernandez<\/a>, who also trains with Roberson, scored the fastest
\nknockout in last season of DWCS in 15 seconds as well.<\/p>\n
