The main event will now see Japanese star Tatsuo Taira take on the Korean HyunSung Park after Amir Albazi was removed from the fight due to reportedly suffering an undisclosed injury. We will now have the chance to watch two fighters from neighboring countries battle it out to see who is the better fighter from East Asia.
Tatsuro Taira is coming into this bout after receiving the first loss of his career against Brandon Royval back in October, when a unanimous decision did not go in the young star’s favor. He now faces an opponent who has yet to lose a bout, and it will be interesting to see if he can bounce back with a victory.
Park has made an impressive start to his mixed martial arts career and is currently undefeated. His last fight saw him lock in a rear-naked choke in the first round against Carlos Hernandez, which gained him the win. Although Park has yet to lose a bout, he has been thrown into the deep end in this clash, and all eyes will be on him to see if he will handle the step up in class.
All eyes will be on this fight to see who will move up the power rankings to potentially earn the right to face champion Alexandre Pantoja in the future. Taira is the favorite in this fight, and we have him taking this one with -340 odds at FanDuel.

This lightweight clash has Mateusz “Chinczyk” Rebecki duking it out with Chris “The Problem” Duncan. Spectators will be watching this one closely, as either fighter has a chance to move up the rankings after the winner is decided and move into the top 15 Lightweight contenders.
Rebecki’s last fight saw him pick up a win against Kyrgyz Myktybek Orolbai. He was awarded the victory by split decision back at UFC 308. The Polish fighter is known for his aggressive nature, but he has a formidable opponent in Duncan, who has a very similar fighting style.
Duncan should be feeling confident coming into this Fight Night, as the Scot has won both of his last two fights in the same way, applying a guillotine choke, which made his opponents tap on both occasions. The fighter from Stirlingshire, Scotland, will surely be looking to finish this fight in a similar manner.
Currently, with FanDuel, you can bet on Rebecki taking this one and leaving victorious at -225 via FanDuel, which looks the way to go.

One of the most evenly matched fights this Saturday sees Elves Brener take on Esteban Ribovics, which has the added spice of featuring arguably the biggest rivalry in South America. Both are entering this bout after suffering losses in their last fights, so each fighter will be coming in full throttle to try and bounce back.
The Brazilian Brener has been unsuccessful in his last two fights, with his most recent loss coming after a series of knees from Joel Álvarez forced him to the mat, prompting the referee to step in and stop the fight. Brener will be looking to avoid defeat against Ribovics, but this might not be as easy as he believes.
Ribovics was on a hot streak before his last fight back in March 2025, where he picked up three victories on the trot. However, against Nasrat Haqparast, a split decision did not go in his favor. The striker will be seeking redemption at this event and will try to bring glory back to his home country of Argentina.
Esteban Ribovics is the fighter we expect to take this one, and you can place bets on this matchup as well, with odds of -280 at FanDuel.

The only women’s fight on the main card will see Karol Rosa come to blows with Nora Cornolle. Each fighter will be looking to bring their A-game in this fight, as it could seriously reshape the Women’s Bantamweight Division’s power rankings.
Rosa has had a fantastic 13-year-long career, but was unfortunately beaten in her last matchup with Ailin Perez, coming out on the wrong end of a unanimous decision. The Brazilian, trained in Muay Thai, will bring six years of experience fighting in the UFC into her battle with the Frenchwoman Cornolle.
Debuting in 2021, Cornolle has lost two out of eleven fights during her career, but possesses explosive knockout power and is also capable of finishing bouts via submission. In her last fight, she was able to lock in a rear-naked choke on her opponent, Hailey Cowan, which made her tap in the second round. She will enter this fight with confidence, and this could prove to be another tight affair for Rosa.
Despite losing her last fight, we believe that Karol Rosa will use her experience to her advantage in this one and win the fight with -192 odds at FanDuel.

MAGNY | TALE OF THE TAPE | DOS SANTOS |

Neil Magny versus Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos ought to be an intriguing one to watch, as Magny is much taller than dos Santos, providing an interesting tactical battle.
“The Haitian Sensation” Magny was unlucky in his last fight, where he was knocked out by a quick right hand, which made him fall to his knees. Magny has been somewhat of a journeyman in his career in the UFC, so he will be looking to put any doubts to rest about his ability with a victory against dos Santos.
Just like Magny, dos Santos is also entering this bout after a knockout in his previous fight. Back in March of this year, a series of elbows and knees from Chidi Njokuani prompted the referee to stop the fight. The 38-year-old will aim to bounce back from his last fight and prove to the world that he still has some gas left in the tank.
This bout will be very evenly matched, but we’re expecting Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos to defy the disadvantage in size and take this one, and you can bet on him at FanDuel today with -200 odds.
