Worthy began his MMA career in 2008 at just 19 years old, fighting for regional promotions to hone his skills as a martial artist. After compiling a 7-2 record, he earned himself a contract with UFC where he made his promotional debut at UFC Fight Night 138, losing by split decision to Teruto Ishihara.
