Andre Fili

Andre Fili (21-8) will be hoping to pick up his first win since June 2020 when he beat Charles Jourdain via split-decision. His most recent outing against Daniel Pineda in June 2021 ended in a no-contest due to an accidental eye poke.

Tristan Connelly

At UFC Fight Night this Saturday, Tristan Connelly (14-7) will have the opportunity to bounce back from his recent loss to Pat Sabatini last April. 'Boondock' joined the UFC ranks in September 2019 and has a 1-1 record in the promotion.

Krzysztof Jotko

Krzysztof Jotko (23-5) picked up a split-decision victory over Misha Cirkunov in his latest bout in October 2021. The 32-year-old will be hoping to register his second straight win when he takes on another veteran in Gerald Meerschaert.

Gerald Meerschaert

Gerald Meerschaert (34-14) is riding a three-fight win streak in the UFC, with all of them coming by way of submission. 'GM3' will now have the opportunity to stretch his win streak to four when he opens the main card opposite Jotko in this Saturday's Fight Night event.
