#2. Chidi Njokuani vs. Dusko Todorovic
If the judges need to plan ahead for a coffee break, they probably won't be needed for Njokuani and Todorovic. With a combined 20 wins by knockout, the likelihood of this bout seeing the allotted 15-minutes is low.
Chidi Njokuani made his UFC debut back in February after a successful showing in Dana White's Contender Series. The debut lasted only 16 seconds, making for an introduction that grabbed everyone's attention. Looking to take over where his brother Anthony left off, 'Chidi Bang Bang' hopes to take the audiences by storm once again this Saturday.

A Serbian adversary stands in the way, however. Dusko Todorovic, also a Contender Series alum, has a bit more tenure in the company. 2-2 in the organization since a 2020 debut, 'Thunder' is hoping to put together his first win streak in the organization and steal the steam that his opponent is bringing into this bout.
#1. Omar Morales vs. Uros Medic
This bout has all the makings for Fight of the Night. Omar Morales is looking to make 2022 his year as he competes for the first time since September 2021. This was a loss to Jonathan Pearce coming after his victory over Shane Young. Morales is sure to be as hungry as ever come Saturday night.
"Hunger" feels thematic in this bout, as Uros Medic could very well be as motivated as ever following his first professional loss. "You either win or learn" is a phrase often used in MMA, and a loss to Jalin Turner is nothing for one to hang their head over. Too much too soon for 'The Doctor', perhaps, but this upcoming fight could show him triumphing over adversity.
Exciting in both his Contender Series match and his UFC debut, the 29-year-old has a 100% finishing rate. Morales will look to keep that intact whilst returning to the win column and proving that he is the fighter that many speculated him to be following his debut.
