Manolo Zecchini (11-3) will make his UFC debut against a fellow newcomer in Morgan Charriere on Saturday.

The only point to […]


Morgan Charriere Set For UFC Debut In Home Country

Former Cage Warriors featherweight champion Morgan Charriere (18-9-1) will make his UFC debut against Manolo Zecchini on Saturday.

Sitting at No. 10 in the UFC's light-heavyweight rankings, Ryan Spann (21-8) will hope to crack into the top 10 with a win over eighth-ranked Anthony Smith in Saturday's co-main event. A dangerous finisher, 18 of Spann's 21 wins have come by finish, with 12 of them coming via submission. DraftKings sees Spann as the […]


Anthony Smith Seeking Victory In 20th UFC Appearance

He averages 57.7 fantasy points per […]


Fernie Garcia Set For A Tough Third Octagon Appearance

Fernie Garcia (10-3) enters Saturday's contest faced with an extremely tough uphill battle in Rinya Nakamura. Since a Contender Series win in October of 2021, Garcia has lost both of his UFC appearances via decision. DraftKings sees Garcia as a huge underdog with a salary of $6,600. He averages only 24.5 fantasy points per contest […]

Mario Bautista Earns Big Victory At UFC 292

Mario Bautista has officially arrived at the top of the bantamweight party, earning his fifth straight victory on Saturday. At UFC 292, he was able to earn a unanimous-decision victory over a very tough opponent in Da'Mon Blackshear. Though he was out-struck in the significant strike-category (79 to 90) and landed less takedowns (two to […]


Da'Mon Blackshear Comes Up Short In Bid For Consecutive Wins

Fighting in back-to-back weeks is a tough task for any fighter. Da'Mon Blackshear took on that challenge but fell short with a decision loss on Saturday. Though he out-struck Mario Bautista (90 significant strikes to 79) and landed more takedowns (four to two), Bautista was the more effective striker. Numbers don't always give a fighter […]


Pedro Munhoz Unable To Earn Decision Nod

In an expected stand-up battle, Pedro Munhoz came up short in his top-10 battle with Marlon Vera on Saturday. In 15 minutes of action, Munhoz landed 113 significant strikes compared to the 141 of Vera. Not only did Vera have the greater output, he also landed the bigger shots, giving him the judges' nods. The […]


Mario Bautista Set For New Opponent At UFC 292

His new opponent is Da'Mon Blackshear, who was victorious last week with a first-round twister. DraftKings sees Bautista as the big favorite with a salary of $9,100. He averages 80.3 […]


Da'Mon Blackshear Stepping In On Late Notice At UFC 292

This fight will go really good or really bad for Da'Mon Blackshear (14-5-1) against Mario Bautista on Saturday. Blackshear is coming off of an extremely rare twister win. The problem is that his victory came one week ago on Aug. 12. If he's still riding that momentum high, Blackshear could have a massive performance. DraftKings […]


Pedro Munhoz Set To Showcase On Main Card

Rebounding from a recent tough skid, Pedro Munhoz (20-7) will take to the main card of a huge UFC 292 show on Saturday to face off with a tough opponent in Marlon Vera. Munhoz came out in his last appearance and earned a decision nod over Chris Gutierrez in April. Typically a finisher as a […]

Dobson had an impressive showing on the Contender Series in September of 2021, earning a first-round submission. Since then, he has lost both of his Octagon appearances […]


Tafon Nchukwi Hoping To Show Fans He Can Deliver A Finish

Tafon Nchukwi will look to show fans he can deliver on his big pre-UFC power on the big stage when he meets AJ Dobson in his sixth UFC showing this Saturday. Prior to entering the UFC, all of Nchukwi's victories have come by knockout. While in the UFC, both of his wins have come by […]


Jamie Pickett Enters Octagon In Dire Need Of A Win

In 15 minutes of action, Camur only landed 68 significant strikes, having his total nearly doubled by Boser, who landed 120 […]


Tanner Boser Earns First UFC Light-Heavyweight Victory

L'udovit Klein Earns Big Win Saturday
