Let's make this birthday one to remember.

47 years old (Born on August 27, 1977)

Happy Birthday, Kamal Shalorus! From your thrilling WEC debut on November 18, 2009—when you turned Will Kerr into an MMA memory—to stepping fearlessly into the UFC spotlight at UFC 128 in March of 2011; you've always packed a punch that's timeless (and sometimes humorously terrifying).

We wish you endless takedowns, knockouts and cake that never taps out. May you keep defending each birthday year with passion and strength just as fiercely as you've tackled every opponent inside the cage. Keep inspiring us all to stay young-at-heart—or else we're calling Herb Dean to check our pulse!
