Quick read

Sean Strickland recounted telling Francis Ngannou that he would find the reason Strickland carries a gun by looking in the mirror. Carlos Prates and Jack Della Maddalena held their first face-off, with Prates appearing very large for the welterweight division. Shamil Gaziev weighed approximately 140kg just yesterday for his heavyweight bout at UFC Perth in Australia, where recovery time is half of normal due to time zones. Arman Tsarukyan revealed the UFC recently sent him an unexpected $42,000 bonus, possibly for his social media work, though he wasn't told the specific reason.
