Former champion Israel Adesanya will enter the octagon in this Saturday’s main event for what will be his first non-title fight since 2019. Adesanya has had gold on the line in each of his last 12 fights.

He is coming off of a loss against current champion Dricus du Plessis - a fight in which he was attempting to regain the middleweight title that he had lost prior to Sean Strickland.

Standing across the cage from Adesanya this weekend will be Nassroudine Imavov - the number-five ranked middleweight who has won his last three in a row.

Imavov is coming off of a decision win over Brendan Allen that took place last September.

Adesanya, as is usual in most of his fights, will have the reach advantage - five-inches, to be exact. He also will stand one-inch taller than his opponent. 

Not the huge betting favorite he has been in the past, Adesanya will still enter the octagon as the favorite. He is listed as (-164) via FanDuel.

Shara Magomedov vs. Michel Page - Middleweight Division

15-0Record22-3

Although seven-years older than his opponent and coming off of a loss, Michael “Venom” Page brings a fighting style to his bout against Shara “Bullet” Magomedov that could give the undefeated Russian some problems. 

Page debuted with the UFC last March and defeated Kevin Holland. However, he was defeated in a close decision by Ian Garry in his most recent bout last June.

Magomedov, still undefeated at 15-0, is coming off of a highlight-reel knockout over Armen Petrosyan that took place at UFC 308 last October.

Despite his experience, as well as height and reach advantages, the older Page will be the (+144) underdog at FanDuel in this co-main event.

Looking to snap a two-fight losing skid, number-four ranked heavyweight Sergei Pavlovich aims to defeat the number-nine ranked Jairzinho Rozenstruik.

Pavlovich is coming off of a unanimous decision loss to Alexander Volkov. Prior to that, he was knocked out by Tom Aspinall in what was a fight for the interim heavyweight title.

Rozenstruik, a former kickboxer with a record of 76-8, has won his last two in a row. He most recently earned a split-decision over Tai Tuivasa at UFC 305 last August.

Only one-inch separates these men in height but Pavlovich will have a significant six-inch reach advantage over his opponent. 

Pavlovich comes in as the (-330) favorite at FanDuel- the largest betting favorite on this main card.

After an impressive knockout performance on the Contender Series, Vinicius Oliveira has gone on to win back-to-back fights in the UFC, including his most recent win over Ricky Simon at UFC 303 last June.

Oliveira will next take on Said Nurmagomedov, who is coming off of a ‘performance of the night’ submission win over Muin Gafurov. However, that fight took place in October 2023 and this will be Nurmagomedov’s first fight in more than a year.

Oliveira will stand one-inch taller and have the slightest advantage in reach. 

But, despite his inactivity recently, it is Nurmagomedov who is listed as the (-172) favorite at FanDuel to win this Saturday.

Winning streaks are on the line in this bout as both Fares Ziam and Mike Davis have won their last four straight.

Ziam is coming off of a KO win over Matt Frevola that took place last September and Davis is riding the high of his submission win over Natan Levy that took place last March.

Both men will stand at an equal height, but Ziam will have a 2.5-inch reach advantage over Davis. 

Despite this, Ziam will enter the octagon this Saturday as the (+114) underdog at FanDuel.

Known for his taekwondo, Muhammad Naimov made his UFC debut in 2023 and quickly won his first three fights for the promotion. However, he will enter the cage this Saturday coming off of a submission loss that took place last June.

He takes on promotional newcomer Kaan Ofli, who has just one fight in the UFC - a TKO loss that took place last August. He was previously seen as a competitor on the Ultimate Fighter tournament series.

Naimov will stand two-inches taller and have a four-inch reach advantage over Ofli. He is listed as the (-295) favorite at FanDuel.
