Amanda Lemos vs. Angela Hill (Strawweight)
Raphael Assuncao vs. Ricky Simon (Bantamweight)
Diego Ferreira vs. Mateusz Gamrot (Lightweight)

Derrick Lewis
Coming off a loss to Ciryl Gane at UFC 265, Derrick Lewis will look to bounce back and put himself in the mix at heavyweight. The brawler is currently ranked No. 3 and tied with Matt Brown for the most KO/TKO victories in the UFC at 12.
Chris Daukaus
Surging heavyweight contender Chris Daukaus has strung together a five-fight finishing run in the cage. He currently sits at No. 7 in the heavyweight rankings, and victory over Lewis will allow him to climb the divisional ladder.
Stephen Thompson
Stephen Thompson is considered one of the best welterweights in the promotion, but the 38-year-old hasn't been at his best in his recent outings. After dropping a lopsided decision to Gilbert Burns in July, 'Wonderboy' will look for a win to put himself back on track.
Belal Muhammad
Belal Muhammad has been on a tear in the octagon, with a total of five wins and a no-contest in his last six UFC appearances. Ranked No. 10, 'Remember The Name' is one of the most promising welterweight contenders. His latest win in the UFC came over UFC veteran Demian Maia at UFC 263.
Amanda Lemos
Amanda Lemos will be looking to add to her four-fight win streak in the UFC. The No.11-ranked strawweight is one of the most dangerous strikers in the division and has only one loss in the octagon.
Angela Hill
Angela Hill is 13-10 as a pro MMA fighter, but she has never been TKO/KO’d as a professional. Ranked No.13 in the strawweight division, Hill will look to take this opportunity to bounce back from a slump that has seen her lose three of her last four bouts in the UFC.
Raphael Assuncao
Raphael Assuncao will be hoping to turn things around and snap the longest losing streak of his MMA career at UFC Fight Night. He has pulled out of his last two fights in the promotion. The Brazilian's last appearance in the cage saw him lose to Cody Garbrandt via TKO.
Ricky Simon
Ricky Simon (18-3) is riding a three-fight win streak. His last fight was a unanimous decision win over Brian Kelleher in the featherweight division at UFC 258. This time, the Oregon native will be competing at bantamweight (something he has done previously) and hoping to end the year the way he began.
Diego Ferreira
Diego Ferreira will look to avoid going 0-3 this year. His last win in the promotion came over Anthony Pettis via rear-naked choke in January 2020.
Mateusz Gamrot
Mateusz Gamrot (27-9) was undefeated in his MMA career before suffering his first professional loss in his UFC debut. 'The Gamer' is 2-0 so far in 2021 with wins over the likes of Jeremy Stephens and Scott Holtzman.
Cub Swanson
Cub Swanson (27-12) will head into UFC Fight Night for his 21st fight in the promotion. The grappler will look to get back on track after suffering a devastating loss against Giga Chikadze in May. He would also like to avoid losing his sixth fight in his last eight UFC appearances.
Darren Elkins
Darren Elkins, who is currently riding a two-fight win streak in the UFC, has built a career out of his ability to survive and and fight through adversity. With a win over Swanson at UFC Fight Night, Elkins will push his pro MMA record to 27-9.
