Jared Cannonier (17-6)
Jared Cannonier suffered a title-fight loss to then-middleweight champion Israel Adesanya at UFC 276 back in July 2022. 'The Killa Gorilla' rebounded from that loss by edging out a split decision victory over Sean Strickland later that year. Cannonier followed that up by outpointing Marvin Vettori last June.
Nassourdine Imavov (13-4-1NC)
Nassourdine Imavov dropped a unanimous decision to Sean Strickland in January 2023 and battled Chris Curtis five months later, which resulted in a no-contest due to an accidental clash of heads. The Frenchman got back into the win column with a majority decision win over Roman Dolidze earlier this year.
Dominick Reyes (12-4)
Former title challenger Dominick Reyes finds himself on a rough four-fight skid after going unbeaten in 12 straight fights to start his career. 'The Devastator' was stopped in his last three fights and is fresh off a brutal first-round knockout defeat at the hands of Ryan Spann at 281. Reyes will be determined to maintain his spot in the rankings when he returns to the octagon on Saturday.
Dustin Jacoby (19-8-1D)
Dustin Jacoby has gone 1-3 in his last four trips to the octagon. In his latest outing at UFC 296 in December, 'The Hanyak' was outpointed by Alonzo Menifield.
Raul Rosas Jr. (8-1)
Raul Rosas Jr. suffered his lone career defeat when he was outpointed by Christian Rodriguez in a tough back-and-forth battle at UFC 287. However, the Californian didn’t let that loss shake his confidence as he rebounded by obliterating Terrence Mitchell via first-round TKO in September.
Ricky Turcios (12-3)
Ricky Turcios dropped a unanimous decision to Aiemann Zahabi in July 2022 but bounced back with a split decision victory over Kevin Natividad four months later. The Texan will hope to put together a win streak when he returns to the octagon after a long layoff.
Brunno Ferreira (11-1)
Brunno Ferreira endured his only career loss at the hands of Nursulton Ruziboev last July. However, the ferocious Brazilian bounced back in impressive fashion, delivering a spectacular knockout victory over Phil Hawes earlier this year. All of Ferreira's victories came via finish under two rounds.
Dustin Stoltzfus (15-5)
Dustin Stoltzfus hasn't found much success throughout his UFC career. The Pennsylvanian is 2-4 under the promotional banner and is looking to build on his submission victory over Punahele Soriano in December.
Julian Marquez (9-4)
Julian Marquez finds himself on a two-fight skid for the first time in his career. 'The Cuban Missile Crisis' was stopped in both the losses with his latest defeat coming against Marc-Andre Barriault via TKO at UFC 285.
Zachary Reese (6-1)
Zachary Reece earned his UFC contract with a submission victory over Eli Aronov at Dana White's Contender Series 2023 in August. However, his octagon debut didn't go to plan as he was brutally knocked out by Cody Brundage in the first round. The Texan now looks to rebound and pick up his first UFC win this Saturday.
Miguel Baeza (10-3)
After a strong 3-0 start to his UFC career, with all finishes, Miguel Baeza finds himself in a tough spot with three straight losses. The Florida native is eager to turn things around and get back to his winning ways.
Punahele Soriano (9-4)
Punahele Soriano is 1-4 in his last five outings. The Hawaiian is coming off back-to-back defeats with both losses coming via stoppage.

Eduarda Moura (10-0)
Eduarda Moura made an emphatic UFC debut in November, obliterating Montserrat Ruiz via second-round TKO. All but one of the Brazilian's pro MMA wins came via finish.
