Kevin Holland stated he's interested in avenging most of his losses but explicitly ruled out a rematch with Khamzat Chimaev, emphatically rejecting any such proposal. In related news, Brendan Allen, who previously claimed he would dominate Chimaev, traveled to Chimaev's training camp for sparring sessions with visible results shown on video. Newly crowned champion Carlos Ulberg announced he wants to face Magomed Ankalaev in his first title defense. Paulo Costa, now ranked seventh at light heavyweight, has called out Josh Howitt for a BMF belt fight. Sean O'Malley is reportedly struggling to cope with Jiri Prochazka's recent loss. Video also emerged of a college wrestling match between Bo Nickal and Josh Howitt, showing a notably slimmer version of the current heavyweight contender.
