Chidi Njokuani (24-10-0) is a dangerous striker with 14 knockout wins to his name, utilizing his 6’3” frame to land devastating knees and elbows.
However, he has struggled on the ground, which could be a key factor against the well-rounded Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos (25-8-1).

Alexander Hernandez (15-8-0) has been inconsistent over the past few years, alternating wins and losses, but he enters this fight off a split-decision win over Austin Hubbard.
Kurt Holobaugh (22-8-0) is on his third UFC stint and has impressed since his return in 2023. While Holobaugh’s aggressive forward pressure can be effective, it may leave him vulnerable to Hernandez’s counterstriking.

Da’Mon Blackshear (15-7-1) is an elite grappler with 10 submission victories, but his struggles in striking exchanges have cost him in past fights.
Cody Gibson (22-10-0) is a well-rounded veteran with solid grappling skills, though he has been submitted four times in his career. If Blackshear can secure top control, he has a good chance of finding a submission.

Diyar Nurgozhay vs. Brendson Ribeiro
Diyar Nurgozhay
- MMA Record 10-0-0
- Age 27
- Height 6’2″
- Weight 224lbs
- Reach 74″
- Nationality Kazakhstan
Brendson Ribeiro
- MMA Record 16-7-0
- Age 28
- Height 6’3″
- Weight 218lbs
- Reach 81″
- Nationality Brazil
Nurgozhay (10-0-0) makes his highly anticipated UFC debut after securing a highlight-reel head kick knockout on Dana White’s Contender Series.
The Kazakh fighter is a powerful striker with a well-rounded game, and while Ribeiro (16-7-0) has knockout power, his tendency to leave openings when attacking could be costly.

Seung Woo Choi vs. Kevin Vallejos
Seung Woo Choi
- MMA Record 11-7-0
- Age 38
- Height 6’0″
- Weight 145lbs
- Reach 74.5″
- Nationality South Korea
Kevin Vallejos
- MMA Record 14-1-0
- Age 28
- Height 5’11”
- Weight 145lbs
- Reach 68″
- Nationality Brazil
Choi (11-7-0) has struggled recently, winning just one of his last five fights. He has been knocked out twice in that span, a major concern against a power puncher like Vallejos (14-1-0).
The Argentine has only one professional loss, coming against future featherweight title contender Jean Silva. With his clean striking and ability to mix body and head attacks, Vallejos could make a statement here.
