Holland refuses Chimaev rematch; Ulberg wants Ankalaev title defense

Kevin Holland stated he always wants to avenge his losses except against Khamzat Chimaev, emphatically refusing that matchup. Brendan Allen, who claimed he would dominate Chimaev, traveled to train at his camp with sparring footage now available. Carlos Ulberg declared he wants to face Magomed Ankalaev in his first title defense. Paulo Costa moved up to number 7 in the light heavyweight rankings and called out Josh Hokit for a BMF belt fight. Sean O'Malley is struggling emotionally with Jiri Prochazka's recent loss, and video surfaced of a college wrestling match between Bo Nickal and Josh Hokit, showing a much leaner version of Hokit.
