Donald Cerrone

Donald Cerrone (36-16) has been winless in his past six appearances, which includes a no contest against Niko Price in September 2020. His upcoming clash against Lauzon is crucial for his UFC career.


Joe Lauzon

Joe Lauzon (28-15) managed to end his three-fight losing skid with a first-round TKO against Jonathan Pearce in October 2019. Prior to his three consecutive losses, 'J-Lau' had alternated wins and defeats on his record dating back to January 2015.


Tim Means

Tim Means (32-12) is riding a three-fight winning streak, all of which came via unanimous decisions. 'The Dirty Bird' will look to register his first fourth consecutive win under the UFC banner when he takes on fan favorite Kevin Holland.


Kevin Holland

Kevin Holland (22-7-1) will make his second welterweight appearance at Saturday's UFC Fight Night. In his first appearance at 170 pounds in March, 'Trailblazer' defeated Alex Oliveira via second-round TKO.


Joaquin Buckley

Joaquin Buckley (14-4) stunned Impa Kasanganay with a vicious spinning back kick in October 2020 to achieve the biggest highlight-reel knockout of his career. 'New Mansa' has gone 3-1 since that fight, scoring a split decision win over Abdul Razak Alhassan in his most recent outing in February.


Albert Duraev

Albert Duraev (15-3) will look for his 11th straight win when he faces Buckley this Saturday. A product of Dana White's Contender Series, 'Machete' will be making his sophomore UFC appearance after edging out a decision victory over Roman Kopylov in his promotional debut last October.


Damir Ismagulov

Unbeaten in his last 18 bouts, Damir Ismagulov (23-1) is a promising lightweight prospect. The 31-year-old Russian will look to secure his first stoppage win under the promotional banner when he makes his fifth walk to the UFC octagon.


Guram Kutateladze

Guram Kutateladze (12-2) is another streaking lightweight who has been putting in his own work to the tune of collecting nine consecutive wins. 'Georgian Viking' will return to action after scoring a split decision over Mateusz Gamrot nearly two years ago on his promotional debut in October 2020.


Julian Marquez

Julian Marquez (9-2) is 3-1 in the UFC. He's won his last two fights, finishing both opponents via submissions. 'The Cuban Missile Crisis' will hope to continue his winning ways when he makes his fifth promotional appearance this Saturday.


Gregory Rodrigues

Gregory Rodrigues (11-4) is coming off a split decision loss against Armen Petrosyan in February. Prior to that defeat, 'RoboCop' was riding a four-fight winning streak, which included three knockouts. The 30-year-old will look to get back to his winning ways at this Saturday's UFC Fight Night.
