preliminary card

Talita Alencar started off the event with a very convincing unanimous decision win over Vanessa Demopoulos, redeeming her most recent loss with a second win in the organisation.

Martin Buday managed to do just enough to beat short-notice opponent, Uran Satybaldiev, as he defeated the Kyrgyzstan fighter by unanimous decision with all three judges scoring two rounds for the Slovakian. 

Another redemption win occurred when Victor Henry went the distance with Pedro Falcao to triumph by unanimous decision.

Loma Lookboonmee continued her winning streak to four after beating Istela Nunes, making it her sixth decision win in the UFC in nine fights.

Ireland's own Rhys McKee had the pleasure of not only earning the first stoppage win of the night but his first win in the UFC after a Doctor Stoppage at the end of the first round against Daniel Frunza. 

Then to end of the prelims, Dione Barbosa redeemed herself after submitting Diana Belbita in the first round with an Arm Triangle Choke, increasing her finish rate in MMA to 50%. 

main card

The main card began with Torrez Finney earning a split decision win on his UFC debut against Robert Valentin, despite the battle being more of a wrestling match to say the least.

Ode Osbourne snapped his three-fight losing streak with a second-round TKO win over Luis Gurule, making him the first fighter to defeat the Denver-born mixed martial artist.

Brad Tavares claimed victory for the first time since August 2023 as he defeated Gerald Meerschaert by unanimous decision.

ChangHo Lee made it a five-fight winning streak after securing his second win in the organisation with a second-round TKO over Cortavious Romious.

Pat Sabatini began his winning streak with a dominant unanimous decision win against Joanderson Brito, achieving a milestone of 20 victories in his MMA career.

The main event saw Lerone Murphy maintain his undefeated record as he defeated Josh Emmett by unanimous decision as his striking proved to be much better, compared to the American's wrestling.

 

Next week, Miami is back to hosting a PPV event as Alexander Volkanovski takes on Diego Lopes for the Vacant Featherweight title in the headliner, while Michael Chandler tries to keep his #8 Lightweight contender's spot against the #12 contender, Paddy Pimblett, at UFC 312.
