Court McGee

The Crusher

USA

Vintage effort in native Utah
WelterweightUFC
October 5, 2024
McGee defeated Tim Means via submission (neck crank) at 3:19 of Round 1 at UFC 307 on Saturday in Salt Lake City.
ANALYSIS
It was a vintage performance from McGee in front of family and friends in his native Utah. He appeared shockingly competent on the feet early on before forcing Means to the mat and immediately tapping him out. Entering as a +180 underdog and the loser of three in a row, Court almost certainly would have been handed his walking papers if he came up short here. As is, the soon-to-be 40-year-old should be guaranteed another fight with the company. The UFC brass just needs to be careful regarding who they match him up against moving forward.

Another fight scheduled
WelterweightUFC
September 8, 2024
McGee is scheduled to compete against fellow welterweight Tim Means at UFC 307 in Salt Lake City on Oct. 5, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
McGee is on the ropes again, just one loss away from what would be his fourth consecutive loss and worst losing streak in the UFC. He faces off against Means, trying to bounce back from his own output struggles from earlier in 2024.
Suffers third straight defeat
WelterweightUFC
April 6, 2024
McGee lost to Alex Morono via unanimous decision (28-29, 28-29, 28-29) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
McGee will fight for your dollar every single time he steps in the octagon and tonight was no exception. Now 39 years of age and a member of the UFC roster for nearly 14 years, Court simply doesn't have the physical skills at this stage of his career to consistently win at this level. He dropped Round 1 to Morono and managed to make a nice comeback to even the fight in Round 2, but there simply wasn't enough offense generated by Court in Round 3 to take a decision. With this season of Dana White's Contender Series coming up, several veteran fighters are likely to be handed their walking papers. McGee -- a loser of three in a row and six of his last eight -- seems like a prime candidate.
Fellow veteran up next

McGee is scheduled to compete against Alex Morono in a welterweight fight at the UFC's April 6 event, per Aaron Bronsteter of Sportsnet.
ANALYSIS
McGee, one of the UFC's longest-tenured fighters, will take on a fellow veteran in Morono, who is entering his ninth year in the UFC. The former was unable to get back into winning ways during 2023, a year in which he lost to fellow TUF alum Matt Brown via a knockout punch.

May 13, 2023
McGee lost to Matt Brown via KO (punch) at 4:09 of Round 1 at UFC on ABC 4 on Saturday in Charlotte.
ANALYSIS
The days of McGee impacting any sort of title picture have obviously long come and gone, but that doesn't mean the 38-year-old can afford setbacks such as this one in fights in which he enters as a -225 favorite. Court got the better of the action early on, landing a takedown and racking up 1:57 worth of control time in the brief bout, but one Brown right hand sent McGee crashing to the mat, forcing referee Dan Miragliotta to immediately step in. Court has lost two straight (both via first-round knockout) on the heels of a brief two-fight winning streak. He's 3-7 in his last ten fights dating back to January 2017.
Set to face Matt Brown in Vegas
WelterweightUFC
February 14, 2023
McGee (21-11-0) is scheduled to face Matt Brown (23-19-0) in a welterweight bout at the UFC's May 13 event in Las Vegas, Damon Martin of MMAFighting.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 38-year-old McGee will be looking to get back on track in Las Vegas after he saw his two-fight winning streak come to an end in his last trip to the Octagon last summer, when he lost to Jeremiah Wells in the first round via left hook. Brown, meanwhile, has dropped three of his last four bouts but should have plenty of motivation when he fights for the first time since March 2022. With a knockout of McGee, the 42-year-old Brown would tie the UFC all-time career record of 13.
