McGee is 11-1 in his home state of Utah, and will look to end his career on a positive note at UFC 332.

“I signed my final contract,” McGee said in an Instagram video. “I’ve negotiated my last either five or six contracts, usually four-fight deals – actually, all of them are four-fight deals, but I signed my last fight in my last four-fight contract. I was going to retire before I had my neck surgery, and I had it, and I came back and renegotiated, and this will be my final fight in my four-fight contract.

“41 years old, I’ve been competing in the UFC since 2010 with the four fights in ‘The Ultimate Fighter’ house, Season 11, this will make it my 29th UFC fight. A little nostalgic, and it will be here in Salt Lake City. So, that’s exciting and preparations are underway for what will be my retirement fight.”

McGee won Season 11 of “The Ultimate Fighter” as a middleweight. Four fights later, he made his welterweight debut, which saw him pick up a notable win over former champion Robert Whittaker. Although McGee’s career would see many ebbs and flows, he always found a way to bounce back. He snapped a three-fight losing skid by submitting Tim Means at UFC 307, but was defeated by Michael Chiesa in his most recent outing in June 2025.
