Kevin Holland refuses Chimaev rematch; Ulberg calls out Ankalaev

Kevin Holland stated he wants to avenge his losses but drew a hard line at facing Khamzat Chimaev again, emphatically rejecting any rematch proposal. Brendan Allen, who previously claimed he would dominate Chimaev, visited Chimaev's training camp for sparring sessions with visible results shown on video. Carlos Ulberg announced he wants to face Magomed Ankalaev for his first title defense. Paulo Costa moved up to number seven in the light heavyweight rankings and called out Josh Hockitt for a BMF belt fight. Sean O'Malley is struggling emotionally with Jiri Prochazka's recent loss, while footage emerged of a college wrestling match between Bo Nickal and a much slimmer Josh Hockitt.
