UFC Fight Night: Nascimento v Hernandez UFC Fight Night: Argueta v Aguirre UFC Fight Night: Johnson v Flick

Is Nassourdine Imavov set to make a big jump in the rankings or will Sean Strickland's short-notice gamble pay off?

If he doesn’t outwork Barcelos on the feet, he still has that wrestling in his back pocket to throw Barcelos off of his game. Dropping decisions to the likes of [Movsar Evloev](https://www.mmafighting.com/fighter/4892/movsar-evloev), [Josh Emmett](https://www.mmafighting.com/fighter/3686/josh-emmett), [Chan Sung Jung](https://www.mmafighting.com/fighter/14/chan-sung-jung), and [Calvin Kattar](https://www.mmafighting.com/fighter/4139/calvin-kattar) is nothing to be ashamed of, but they’re losses all the same. That will comprise much of his game plan on Saturday as well, which makes sense given how dangerous it is to stand in the pocket and trade shots with Soriano. This being a three-round fight makes it a little dicey as it’s much easier to steal two rounds than it is three, but on the flipside Vieira might be more willing to go for broke with only 15 minutes to work through. Maybe it’s because he hasn’t finished a fight in a few years, but the oddsmakers are definitely overlooking Barcelos’ chances of handing Nurmagomedov his first loss. 1 contender at bantamweight with a win over [Raquel Pennington](https://www.mmafighting.com/fighter/1789/raquel-pennington), and bantamweight blue-chipper [Umar Nurmagomedov](https://www.mmafighting.com/fighter/5039/umar-nurmagomedov) opens the show against [Raoni Barcelos](https://www.mmafighting.com/fighter/4232/raoni-barcelos). That said, the competition he’s faced isn’t near the level of Ige’s, which is a big reason why I’m leaning towards the Hawaiian to snap his skid.

[Edson Barboza](https://www.mmafighting.com/fighter/56/edson-barboza) and [Mirsad Bektic](https://www.mmafighting.com/fighter/1738/mirsad-bektic). Ige has been in plenty of standup fights, but his bread and butter has always been his jiu-jitsu, so he can out-grapple Jackson or at least battle him to a standstill down there. Imavov has put together a three-fight win streak on the strength of his crafty striking and a confidence that can’t be taught. The only other fighter to come close to matching this achievement is [Deiveson Figueiredo](https://www.mmafighting.com/fighter/4188/deiveson-figueiredo), who headlined consecutive pay-per-views with flyweight title defenses at [UFC 255](https://www.mmafighting.com/fight-card/1145/ufc-255) and [UFC 256](https://www.mmafighting.com/fight-card/1151/ufc-256) to close out 2020, but there were a pair of Fight Night events in between.

Edwards (20-3 MMA, 12-2 UFC) thinks the UFC has built Chimaev to be more of a threat than what he actually poses at 170 pounds. Obviously, Edwards intended on keeping his title and moving on from the Usman rivalry. Edwards is expecting to fight Kamaru Usman once again in a trilogy bout at UFC 286 in London on March 18.

Here is all you need to know about UFC Vegas 67, including when Nassourdine Imavov and Sean Strickland will make their way to the cage.

GMT ET - Main event: 10 p.m. 2 p.m. 11 a.m. - Start time: 4 p.m. 12 a.m. 9 p.m. Strickland, 12-4 with the UFC, last fought in December, the last UFC card of 2022. Strickland faces UFC fellow middleweight Nassourdine Imavov at UFC Vegas 67 on January 14. He is 4-1 with the promotion and is on a three-fight win streak. Now, he will look to compete in a rebound, short-notice fight in a new division.

After losing his UFC debut in October 2021, Nascimento has rebounded strong. — UFC (@ufc) It was clear Nascimento was chasing the submission from the get-go.

A graphic has been displayed in Las Vegas that shows a heavyweight title fight between Jones and Ciryl Gane that is scheduled for UFC 285 on March 4.

The former pound-for-pound No.1, who recently hinted at his return by tweeting: "Champion 2023", hasn't fought since defending the UFC light-heavyweight title for the last time against Dominick Reyes in February 2020. Gane missed out on his chance to win the heavyweight title when he was outpointed by Ngannou at UFC 270. Ngannou, 36, has been caught up in a contract crisis with the UFC since defending his title against former training partner Gane last January.

With the UFC's all-time submission wins leader Charles Oliveira in his corner, Allan Nascimento got a slick finish at UFC Fight Night 217.

The ad referred to the Jones-Gane bout as for the "world heavyweight championship," and there is no reference to interim.

The long-awaited heavyweight debut of UFC star Jon Jones appears to be on the horizon, and it will be for a title. Jones confirmed to MMA content creator...

The graphic was later taken down, and MMA Fighting's [Steven Marrocco](https://twitter.com/MMAFightingSM/status/1614379795995045893) reported that it was a "behind-the-scenes mistake." [Ariel Helwani](https://twitter.com/arielhelwani/status/1614400996834414597) reported that heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou is likely to be stripped of his title. The fight against Gane was the last one remaining on his UFC deal. The 35-year-old had other run-ins with the law throughout his career, as he'd previously been arrested for a hit-and-run, driving under the influence, and negligent use of a firearm, among other charges. He vacated the title a few months later before announcing his intentions to move up to heavyweight, taking some time to #UFC285 pic.twitter.com/3ItpnKY4ni

UFC superstar Jon Jones has sensationally revealed that he will be fighting Ciryl Gane for the heavyweight title - as leaked photos of stadium sign also ...

The Frenchman would make an interesting opponent for 'Bones'. It's just been great, it's been a really great trip so far,' Jones said. Henry is just so intelligent, and such a great leader and tactician.

The UFC handed out four post-fight bonuses after Saturday's card, including one to a man whose nickname predicts the bonus amount.

But late in the second round, he faked a right and threw a left that drilled Jackson right in the chin and put him on the canvas. Dan Ige (16-6 MMA, 8-5 UFC) lived up to his “50K” nickname when he took out Damon Jackson (22-5-1 MMA, 5-3-1 UFC) with a one-punch knockout in the second round of the co-main event. Ige had Jackson cut and regularly on the defensive. Kopylov worked his jab regularly against Soriano, then started attacking the body. Nascimento worked to Hernandez’s back and dragged him to the canvas. Nurmagomedov was by far the biggest betting favorite on the card.

The undisputed heavyweight championship will be on the line live from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

The fight against Gane will mark Jones's highly-anticipated heavyweight debut. Gane fight for the heavyweight title, according to White. "Ciryl Gane is a heavyweight who moves like a middleweight.

White also announced the rematch of Leon Edwards and Kamaru Usman.

Edward’s finish will go down as one of the best in UFC history and certainly the best of the last year. That has to live in the head of Usman a bit — he will see it over and over in the lead up to this matchup — but I’ll take Usman in this one. He has the speed and footwork to win against an aging Jones. Jones, 35, is 26-1 and holds the UFC record for most wins in title fight history. White also announced that the title fight rematch between Leon Edwards and Kamaru Usman will headline UFC 286 on March 18 in London. Jon Jones will officially move up to heavyweight and take on Ciryl Gane for the vacant heavyweight title at UFC 285 on March 4, UFC president Dana White announced Saturday.

Jon Jones finally has a date and opponent for his heavyweight debut — and the best heavyweight in the world is no longer a UFC fighter.

Gastelum exited the event due to a mouth injury and Strickland stepped in on four days' notice. Strickland, less than one month after losing to Jared Cannonier in the final UFC fight of 2022, headlined the first card of 2023. Imavov showed a lot of determination in his first main event, fighting fatigue and landing nice elbows and knees on Strickland in Round 5. The pace slowed in the third, despite a similar output of strikes, as both fighters tried to recover from the stamina dump in Rounds 1 and 2. Strickland won on all three scorecards with a pair of 49-46s and a 48-47. Strickland boxed and brawled his way to victory in a short-notice performance against Imavov at UFC Fight Night in Las Vegas on Saturday night.
