However, Cannonier has not stepped foot in the UFC octagon since his unanimous decision win over Marvin Vettori last June. It was his second win in a row and he is 4-1 over his last five fights.
France’s Nassourdine Imavov has had mixed success in his last three fights - having one win, one loss and one no-contest. He will enter this weekend’s main event coming off of a majority decision win over Roman Dolidze that occurred back in February.
Imavov is the younger, taller fighter but Cannonier - a former heavyweight with big noticeable punching power - will have a notable 2.5-inch reach advantage.

Another former title challenger fighting on this card is light heavyweight Dominick Reyes. The number-15 ranked LHW was undefeated before losing his title fight to Jon Jones and has seemed to struggle to get back into contention over recent years.
Battling through injuries as well, Reyes has now lost his last four in a row and, other than his decision loss to Jones, all of his losses have come via knockout or TKO. His most recent bout was back in 2022 where he lost to Ryan Spann in the first round.
His opponent, Dustin Jacoby, is also looking to bounce back from his recent performances; having gone 1-3 in his last four.

At only 19-years-old, Raul rosas Jr will be participating in his fourth UFC bout this weekend, where he’ll take on TUF tournament winner Ricky Turcios.
After suffering his first professional MMA loss, Rosas bounced back recently with a first-round TKO over Terrence Mitchell last September.
After winning The Ultimate Fighter show, Ricky Turcios lost his first official UFC bout but also recently bounced back when he defeated Kevin Natividad by split-decision. However, he has not fought since 2022.
Both men stand at equal height but despite Turcios’ four-inch reach advantage and TUF title, he is listed as the +190 underdog.

A black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Dustin Stoltzfus is still just 2-3 in his last five fights. However, he is coming off of an impressive submission win over Punahele Soriano that took place last December.
He takes on Brunno Ferreira, who is 2-1 in the UFc and is coming off of a spectacular first-round TKO win over Phil Dawes that occurred back in January.
Stoltzfus will have an edge in UFC experience as well as reach, but Brunno “The Hulk” Ferreira’s hunger to win has him listed as a -265 favorite.
