UFC Record Breakdown
Josh Emmett's back at the APEX trying to stop the bleeding after two tough losses. The Team Alpha Male veteran got caught in a slick armbar by Youssef Zalal back in October, then dropped a decision to Lerone Murphy before that. Now he's facing Kevin Vallejos on March 14 in what's shaping up as a potential changing of the guard moment. El Chino just starched Giga Chikadze with a spinning back fist in December, and before that he finished SeungWoo Choi on the ground. Dude's got three straight wins and people are starting to notice that power.
Both guys hunt for the finish early, so expect fireworks in the first two rounds before someone's lights go out.
Emmett still carries that scary knockout ability. Remember when he flatlined Bryce Mitchell in under two minutes at UFC 296? That power never leaves. But Vallejos is a switch stance fighter with legit finishing instincts, and Jean Silva recently said the guy has one of the toughest chins in the UFC. That's a problem when you're relying on landing that one big shot.
The matchup gets interesting because Vallejos can finish fights anywhere. He knocked out Chikadze standing, ground and pounded Choi, and went three hard rounds with Danny Silva. Emmett's more of a classic boxer with that Team Alpha Male wrestling base, but his last few fights show he's hittable. Vallejos is young, hungry, and riding momentum while Emmett needs this win badly to stay relevant in a stacked featherweight division. The UFC officially confirmed this featherweight showdown headlines UFC Fight Night at the Meta APEX, giving both fighters another chance to perform in the familiar Vegas facility.
