The main event puts two welterweights on a collision course after both Gilbert Burns and Mike Malott each stepped on the scale at 170.8 lbs. Burns, nicknamed "Durinho," is a 39-year-old Brazilian veteran ranked 13th in the welterweight division with a professional record of 22-10. Fighting out of Kill Cliff FC, he is a well-rounded threat who averages 3.15 significant strikes per minute and 2.12 takedowns per 15 minutes, reflecting the grappling-heavy style that has defined his UFC tenure.
The main card also features a bantamweight contest between Kyler Phillips and Charles Jourdain, two bouts at lightweight with Mandel Nallo facing Jai Herbert and Thiago Moises squaring off against Gage Young, and a women's strawweight matchup between Jasmine Jasudavicius and Karine Silva.
Among the fighters with verified data on the preliminary card, Canadian heavyweight Tanner Boser — known as "The Bulldozer" — enters at 22-11-1 at age 34. The six-foot-two orthodox striker out of Shaved Bears MMA lands 4.7 significant strikes per minute at 52 percent accuracy. His opponent, Swiss fighter Robert Valentin, carries a 12-6 record at 31 years old and also stands six-foot-two with a 77-inch reach. Fighting out of Fight Move Academy, Valentin averages 1.3 submission attempts per 15 minutes, suggesting a grappling-oriented approach that contrasts with Boser's striking output.
