Quick read
Mario Bautista delivered an impressive performance at UFC Vegas 113 on February 8, 2026, submitting Vinicius Oliveira with a rear-naked choke in the second round at the Meta Apex in Las Vegas. Following his victory, Bautista immediately called for a rematch with Cory Sandhagen, who defeated him during his UFC debut in January 2019. With nine wins in his last ten UFC fights, Bautista is positioning himself for a top-5 ranking and more significant matchups. A potential rematch with Sandhagen—currently ranked No. 4 and inactive since October—holds merit as both fighters have elevated their status since their first encounter.
