This Saturday, middleweight striking specialists will headline UFC Vegas 102 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. On a mission to halt a two-fight losing streak, former title challenger Jared Cannonier will collide with Brazilian knockout artist Gregory Rodrigues, who is seeking to punch his way into contendership. In the penultimate scrap of the evening at UFC Vegas 102, featherweight mainstay Calvin Kattar looks to halt the momentum of the streaking Youssef Zalal.
Coming up short in past two bouts to Nassourdine Imavov and Caio Borralho, a victory for Cannonier is all the more necessary to retain his position in the 185-lb top 10.
Winning his past three contests in a row, Rodrigues is presented with a prime opportunity to count himself amongst the best middleweights in the world if he manages to dispatch the “Killa Gorilla” with a win.
Having not seen the winner’s circle since a January 2022 triumph over Giga Chikadze, Kattar finds himself with a slipping grip on his status as member of the 145-lb upper echelon heading into UFC Vegas 102.
Since returning to the UFC after refining his skills on the regional scene, Zalal is primed to notch the biggest win of his career in his journey toward the featherweight title this weekend.
