Following a recent UFC event, Gilbert Burns has announced his retirement from MMA competition. Mike Malott is projected to enter the top 15 welterweight rankings after his recent victory, though the analyst expresses skepticism about Malott's ability to defeat top-tier fighters in the new generation of welterweights. The Guskov vs. Blachowicz fight has been canceled, but UFC has arranged a replacement bout with Polish fighter Ibo Baraniewksi stepping in. Arman Tsarukyan defeated Urijah Faber 13-1 in a wrestling match at RAF, living up to his pre-fight promise to throw Faber into the crowd, and afterward called out Colby Covington, vowing a 10-0 victory. Khamzat Chimaev has signed with the RAF wrestling league, prompting an immediate challenge from Bo Nickal.
