The UFC has officially announced two bouts for UFC Vegas 118, scheduled for June 6, pairing Bryce Mitchell against Victor Henry at bantamweight and Imanoel Rodriguez against Matt Schnell at flyweight.
Mitchell, nicknamed "Thug Nasty," enters the matchup carrying an overall record of 18-4-0 and a 9-3 mark inside the UFC. The 31-year-old American, who trains out of Barata MMA, is a southpaw standing five-foot-ten with a 70-inch reach. He is one of the more prolific grapplers in the division, averaging 3.24 takedowns per 15 minutes and posting a striking accuracy of 59 percent, among the highest in the featherweight — now bantamweight — ranks.
Henry, known as "La Mangosta," brings a 25-7-0 professional record and a 4-2 UFC ledger into the fight. The 39-year-old switch-hitter out of UWF USA is five-foot-seven with a 68-inch reach and represents a striking-heavy threat, averaging an aggressive 7.17 significant strikes landed per minute at 53 percent accuracy. His output makes him one of the busier offensive fighters Mitchell will have faced.
In the flyweight contest, Imanoel Rodriguez, who is 1-0 in the UFC, takes on the experienced Matt Schnell. The 36-year-old Schnell, fighting out of Fortis MMA in the United States, holds a 17-10-0 professional record and a 7-8 UFC mark. Standing five-foot-eight with a 70-inch reach, "Danger" averages 4.07 significant strikes landed per minute and is an active submission threat, attempting submissions at a rate of 1.2 per 15 minutes.
Why it matters
- Mitchell's grappling-first style sets up a compelling contrast against Henry's high-volume striking attack
- Schnell's UFC experience gives Rodriguez a significant early-career test at flyweight
- Both bouts add meaningful competitive depth to the June 6 card, though placement on the lineup has not yet been confirmed
