Calvin Kattar is gradually climbing the ladder in the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s featherweight division.

“The Boston Finisher” won for the fourth time in five appearances, gradually pulling away from Dan Ige for a unanimous decision triumph in the UFC on ESPN 13 headliner at the Flash Forum on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday night. Despite his recent surge, Kattar may have more work to do in a crowded division.
