Alexandr Romanov Set For Huge Showing Saturday Night

The beast from Moldova, Alexandr Romanov (15-0) will look to remain undefeated and move to 5-0 in the UFC when he battles Chase Sherman on Saturday's main card of action. Romanov has proven he can score a finish on the biggest stage, with three of his four UFC wins coming by submission. His fourth victory […]


Manel Kape Looking For Third Straight Knockout Win

It was a rough UFC start for Manel Kape (17-6), but the RIZIN veteran has turned it around in his last two contests, securing a first-round knockout in both. The long-time RIZIN veteran has fought against some of Asia's biggest names and in front of some of the world's biggest crowds. Both of his UFC […]


Mudaerji Su Can Earn His Fourth Straight UFC Win Saturday

After suffering a defeat in his UFC debut, Mudaerji Su (15-4) has really turned it around, winning his last three appearances in the Octagon, including a first-round knockout/TKO. With a 52.5% significant strike landing rate, Su averages 4.49 significant strikes landed per minute. Throughout his career, Su has finished 13 of his 15 career wins […]


Lando Vannata Looking To Get Into The Win Column Saturday

After scoring a huge knockout with his wheel kick of John Makhdessi in 2016, it has been a lackluster run in the UFC for Lando Vannata (12-5-2), who is 4-5 (two draws) in the UFC. Similar to his opponent for Saturday night, Charles Jourdain, he has also flip-flopped wins and losses over the last handful […]


Charles Jourdain Looking For Back-To-Back Wins

Since joining the UFC in 2019, Charles Jourdain (12-4-1) has flip-flopped wins for losses and is now 3-3 with a draw. He would like to break that streak and put together his first set of back-to-back wins when he opens up Saturday's main card against Lando Vannata. It should be noted that two of his […]


Vicente Luque Drops Decision In Main Event

Entering Saturday's main event on a four-fight winning streak (all by finishes), Vicente Luque was unable to get a victory against Belal Muhammad. In 25 minutes of action, Luque tallied 84 significant strikes (102 total strikes) while stuffing five of Muhammad's 10 takedown tries on the night. Luque decided to keep this one on his […]


Belal Muhammad Avenges Past Loss To Vicente Luque

Though Belal Muhammad did not out-strike Vicente Luque on Saturday, Muhammad landed 60 significant strikes (136 total strikes). Muhammad also secured 7:29 of control time in 25 minutes of action in Saturday's main event. Avenging his loss from their first meeting, Muhammad took four rounds on two judges' scorecards and three rounds from another judge. […]


Gadzhi Omargadzhiev Suffers Odd Loss Saturday

In a very bizzare way to suffer his first loss, Gadzhi Omargadzhiev took his first professional loss via technical unanimous decision. In a wild ending, Caio Borralho took the technical unanimous decision just 3:56 into the third round of action. Borralho kneed a downed Omargadzhiev. Due to Gadzhi being unable to continue, the bout went […]


Caio Borralho Wins On Technical Unanimous Decision

In a wild ending, Caio Borralho took the technical unanimous decision just 3:56 into the third round of action on Saturday. Borralho kneed a downed Gadzhi Omargadzhiev. Due to Gadzhi being unable to continue, the bout went to the scorecards, which had Borralo winning the contest 29-27, 29-27, 29-27. In 14:04 of action, Borralho tallied […]


Miguel Baeza Suffers First-Round TKO Loss

It continues to get worse for the once-undefeated Miguel Baeza. Previously 10-0, Baeza is now 10-3 and has suffered two knockout losses among those three losses. On Saturday, he suffered a first-round TKO defeat. In 4:39 of action, Baeza tallied 24 significant strikes but absorbed 32 significant strikes. With his three UFC wins coming via […]


Andre Fialho Earns Big First-Round TKO For First UFC Win

Andre Fialho's first UFC victory could not have gone much better, knocking out Miguel Baeza in the first round of their contest Saturday night. After apparently breaking the nose of Baeza, Fialho landed a hard left hand that dropped his opponent and eventually led to the end of the contest. In 4:39 of action, Fialho […]


Wu Yanan Unable To Get A Victory Saturday Night

Now on a three-fight losing streak, Wu Yanan suffered a unanimous-decision loss on Saturday night's main card of action. Though she was out-struck by Silva in 15 minutes of action, Yanan landed 62 significant strikes (75 total strikes) and landed her lone takedown attempt. Yanan collected more control time than her opponent by earning 2:15 […]


Mayra Bueno Silva Uses Her Striking To Win

Getting it done with her striking Saturday night, Mayra Bueno Silva earned a unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 30-27) over Wu Yanan. In 15 minutes of action, Silva racked up 87 significant strikes (88 total strikes) and missed her lone takedown try. She did attempt two submissions, though, while collecting only 49 seconds of control time. […]


TJ Laramie Remains Winless

Canada's TJ Laramie remains winless in the UFC after suffering a decisive decision loss Saturday to Pat Sabatini (30-26, 30-26, 30-26). In 15 minutes of action, Laramie was only able to land 15 significant strikes (one significant strike per minute) along with just 22 total strikes. In the ground game, Laramie only landed one of […]


Pat Sabatini Dominates From Bell To Bell

It was all Pat Sabatini in Saturday's matchup with TJ Laramie as he claimed a victory by unanimous decision (30-26, 30-26, 30-26). In 15 minutes of action, Sabatini tallied 36 significant strikes (124 total strikes) but landed six of his 10 takedown tries on the night. Sabatini also controlled over half of the contest with […]


Belal Muhammad Has A Huge Stage On Saturday

Belal Muhammad (20-3) has not been defeated in his last seven bouts and has a main-event platform to bolster his standings in the welterweight division. Muhammad's opponent on the night will be the very dangerous striker Vicente Luque. Muhammad has only three professional losses in his career, and just one of those is by finish. […]


Vicente Luque Hoping To Come Out A Title Contender

Welterweight title contenders clash on Saturday with Vicente Luque (21-7-1) looking for his chance to enter title talks as he battles Belal Muhammad in the night's main event. Since appearing on TUF 21 in 2015, Luque has been a staple in the division with 14 UFC wins, including a first-round knockout in a previous matchup […]


Gadzhi Omargadzhiev Set For UFC Debut

It's not often we have two debuting fighters in Saturday night's co-main event, but that's what we have this weekend with Gadzhi Omargadzhiev (13-0) when he brings his undefeated record into the Octagon. With dangerous striking in tow, Omargadzhiev has finished eight of his 13 career victories by knockout/TKO. His Contender Series showing was very […]


Caio Borralho Set For UFC Debut In Co-Main Event

It is not often the co-main event features both fighters making their debuts, but that is what we have Saturday with Caio Borralho (10-1) coming off of two Contender Series wins in 2021. Borralho is a balanced finisher, with seven of his 10 professional victories coming by a finish -- four of those by knockout/TKO. […]


Miguel Baeza Looking To Avoid Three Straight Losses

After entering the Octagon with a 3-0 record and a Contender Series victory, it has been a rough go for Miguel Baeza (10-2) lately. Both of his professional losses have come in his last two bouts. It should also be noted that Baeza has shown he can finish on the big stage, with all three […]


Andre Fialho Set Up For A Potential Underdog Victory Saturday

Hoping to earn his first Octagon victory after dropping a decision in his debut back in January, Andre Fialho (14-4) will hope to bring his knockout power into the cage against Miguel Baeza. There is no doubt that Fialho is always one strike away from ending his opponent's night. Eleven of his 14 career wins […]


Wu Yanan Needs A Win Saturday To Turn Things Around

It has been a rough run in the UFC for Wu Yanan (12-4), who is currently 1-3 in the Octagon. Her lone win was a victory, however, when she earned a first-round submission. Yanan has shown the ability to finish in her career, with 11 of her 12 career wins coming by the finish -- […]


Mayra Bueno Silva Can Get Her Third Submission Victory

Since a first-round ninja choke in her Contender Series showing in 2018, Mayra Bueno Silva (7-2-1) is 2-2-1 in the Octagon, with both of those victories coming via first-round submissions. She averages 3.82 significant strikes landed per minute in the Octagon, which is slightly less than her opponent, and it's no secret she wants the […]


T.J. Laramie Enters The Octagon Saturday Looking For Redemption

T.J. Laramie (12-4) has been waiting since September of 2020 for an opportunity at redemption after his UFC debut, in which he lost by submission in less than one minute. Prior to that showing, Laramie had looked impressive in his professional career, with seven of his career wins coming by knockout/TKO and an additional two […]


Pat Sabatini Looking To Remain Undefeated

2021 was a great year for UFC newcomer Pat Sabatini (16-3), who went 3-0 on the year. With one of those victories coming by submission, Sabatini improved to 11 career finishes by submission. Sabatini is only averaging 1.35 significant strikes landed per minute but attempts almost three submissions per contest. DraftKings sees Sabatini as one […]


Alexander Volkanovski Continues To Dominate

Alexander Volkanovski continued his display of dominance by earning a fourth-round TKO finish in the main event of UFC 273 on Saturday when he defeated the Korean Zombie. In 19:15 minutes of action, Volkanovski tallied 138 significant strikes (152 total strikes) and landed four of his eight takedown tries on the night. Volkanovski has practically […]


Jung Chan-sung Can't Pull Off The Upset Saturday

It wasn't meant to be for the Korean Zombie, who suffered a fourth-round TKO loss, in Saturday night's main event to champion Alexander Volkanovski. In 19:15 of action, Jung Chan-sung tallied only 48 significant strikes (51 total strikes) while absorbing 138 significant strikes. He is 4-4 in his last eight bouts, and the Zombie should […]


Petr Yan Unable To Recapture His Gold

In a chance to recapture his lost title, Petr Yan was unable to recover at UFC 273 on Saturday, dropping a close split decision to Aljamain Sterling in the night's co-main event. Yan did out-strike Sterling in 25 minutes of action by tallying 63 significant strikes (139 total strikes), and he stuffed 20 of Sterling's […]


Aljamain Sterling Proves Doubters Wrong

Proving the nay-sayers wrong, Aljamain Sterling defended his bantamweight crown at UFC 273 on Saturday by defeating the former champion Petr Yan by split decision (48-47, 47-48, 48-47). In 25 minutes of action, Sterling tallied 62 significant strikes (91 total strikes) but only landed two of his 22 attempts in the takedown department. In the […]


Gilbert Burns Puts On Amazing Performance But Suffers Loss

In a fight of the year contender, No. 2-ranked Gilbert Burns gave rising star Khamzat Chimaev all he could handle at UFC 273 on Saturday. Though Burns took a unanimous-decision loss, Burns out-struck Chimaev by landing 119 significant strikes (141 total strikes), though he missed all five of his takedown tries. Burns showed that he […]
