Main Event:

• The main event features a thrilling clash of featherweight contenders as legendary KO artist and No. 12 ranked Edson Barboza (24-11) takes on undefeated Lerone Murphy (13-0-1). Barboza seeks his third consecutive win following his first-round knockout win over Billy Quarantillo and one of the best comebacks of 2023, where he survived and then beat Sodiq Yusuff. Murphy arrives at his first main event unbeaten and looking to climb up in the rankings.

Co-Main Event:

• Welterweights Khaos Williams (14-3)) and Carlston Harris (19-5)) meet in the night’s co-main event. Williams returns to the Octagon after just two fights over the last two years, aiming to make a real push in the division. Meanwhile, Harris looks to add more wins to his 4-1 UFC record and move up another notch in the divisional rankings.
