Main Event: Josh Emmett

record: 19-4 Beauty, 10-4 UFC
Opponent: Lerown Murphy (15-0-1 MMA, 7-0-1 UFC)
Split: Featherweight
Important victory: Bryce Mitchell, Calvin Catta, Shane Burgos
others: Emmett was undoubtedly particularly satisfying when he woke up and saw the shadows of Nazi and Hitler fans and sympathizers Bryce Mitchell, who was sent to a territory deep enough to think that the Earth was flat. It snapped the skids in two matches to Ilia Toplia and Ja Rodriguez. The latter was a tentative title fight.

Main Event: Lerone Murphy

record: 15-0-1 Beauty, 7-0-1 UFC
Opponent: Josh Emmett (19-4 MMA, 10-4 UFC)
Split: Featherweight
Important victory: Ige, Edson Barboza,
others: For the second time in three fights, England’s Murphy is taking part in the main event. His first, a year ago, against Edson Barboza, was the night winner’s fight. His UFC ladder climb is steady, but he won two before he beat Barboza and Dan Ige and won two before it became a stellar resume.

Co-main event: Joanderson Brito

record: 17-4-1 Beauty, 5-2 UFC
Opponent: Pat Sabatini (19-5 MMA, 6-2 UFC)
Split: Featherweight
Important victory: Jack Shore, Jonathan Pierce, Andre Fili, Diego Lopez, Chepe Mariscal
others: Brito had five consecutive wins that were snapped by the loss of a decision split in Paris this September by William Gomis. The five previous wins were all halts. This included two post-match bonus awards.

Co-main event: Pat Sabatini

record: 19-5 Good, 6-2 UFC
Opponent: Joanderson Brito (17-4-1 MMA, 5-2 UFC)
Split: Featherweight
Important victory: Jonathan Pierce, Lucas Almeida, Jamal Emmers
others: Sabatini has won and lost the last five fights, but returned to the rise this fall with Jonathan Pierce’s first round submission.

UFC debut: Torrez Finney

record: 10-0
Opponent: Rob Valentin (10-4 MMA, 0-1 UFC)
Split: Middle class
others: For some reason, many fighters joined the UFC in an overwhelmingly decisive victory in the DWCS. The only requirement is to win and win the contract. That wasn’t the case for Finney, who will ultimately do the actual UFC walk after three wins in DWCS. His first was a submission that was not sufficient in 2023. The decision for 2024 was also not sufficient. And he was the only one on the cards to leave the building without a contract from Dana White, despite the winner of another decision signing the contract. That same season he returned and got a halted victory. And finally we traded.

UFC debut: Luis Gurule

record: 10-0
Opponent: Ode Osbourne (12-8 MMA, 4-6 UFC)
Split: Flyweight
others: Gurule’s split-decision victory at the DWCS this October was enough to put the 31-year-old Coloradan in the UFC.

UFC debut: Daniel Furunza

record: 9-2
Opponent: Rhys McKee (13-6-1 MMA, 0-4 UFC)
Split: Welterweight
others: The 30-year-old, based in Italy, punched a ticket to the UFC through DWCS this fall. He has won five consecutive victories, with eight of his career being suspended – all knockouts.

UFC debut: Uran Satybaldiev

record: 9-0
Opponent: Martin Buday (14-2 MMA, 5-1 UFC)
Split: Heavyweight
others: For Satybaldiev from Kyrgyzstan, the short-term UFC opportunity was easy. He usually fights in the light heavyweight division and takes part in the promotion as the 205-pound champion in the LFA. However, for his debut, he doesn’t need to emphasize losing weight. He has seven of his nine wins at stops, including two LFA title fights in 2024.
