LAS VEGAS – Ryan Spann knows more time will be required before his complete heavyweight transformation is complete, but he is excited to take the first step Saturday at UFC Fight Night 254 . After spending the entirety of his promotional tenure at light heavyweight, Spann (22-10 MMA, 8-5 UFC) opted to change divisions and move up. He makes his debut against Waldo Cortes-Acosta (12-1 MMA, 5-1 UFC) at the UFC Apex ( ESPN+ ). According to Spann, he has bulked up methodically without losing too much speed or athleticism. That process will continue regardless of the result of his entry fight into the division
