Two bouts have been officially added to UFC Vegas 118, scheduled for June 6, with Bryce Mitchell meeting Victor Henry at bantamweight and Imanol Rodriguez taking on Matt Schnell at flyweight.
Mitchell, known as "Thug Nasty," enters the contest with an overall record of 18-4 and a 9-3 mark inside the UFC. The 31-year-old southpaw from the United States trains out of Barata MMA and stands five-foot-ten with a 70-inch reach. He is a disciplined grappler, averaging 3.24 takedowns per 15 minutes, and his striking accuracy of 59 percent makes him one of the more precise fighters in the division despite a relatively measured output of 2.27 significant strikes per minute.
Henry, nicknamed "La Mangosta," is a 39-year-old switch-hitter carrying a 25-7 overall record and a 4-2 UFC ledger. He stands five-foot-seven with a 68-inch reach and brings a noticeably high-volume striking game, landing 7.17 significant strikes per minute at 53 percent accuracy. His submission threat is limited, but his output and experience make him a credible test at 135 pounds.
The flyweight co-feature pits UFC newcomer Imanol Rodriguez, who is 1-0 in the promotion, against veteran Matt "Danger" Schnell. Schnell, 36, is an orthodox fighter out of Fortis MMA who holds a 17-10 overall record and a 7-8 UFC mark. He stands five-foot-eight with a 70-inch reach and poses a consistent submission threat, averaging 1.2 submission attempts per 15 minutes. His striking volume sits at 4.07 significant strikes per minute.
Why it matters
- Mitchell has established himself as a top bantamweight contender, and a win over the experienced Henry could reinforce his divisional standing.
- Henry's elite striking volume creates a sharp stylistic contrast against Mitchell's grappling-heavy approach.
- Schnell's submission rate gives Rodriguez an early test of how well the UFC newcomer can defend on the ground.
- Both bouts add meaningful competitive depth to the June 6 Las Vegas card.
