Ignacio Campos silenced the home crowd as he finished the local favorite in the first round at PFL Nigeria.

Campos (8-2, 2-1 PFL) locked horns with Wasi Adeshina (10-4, 3-1 PFL) in an intriguing featherweight clash. After a brief feeling-out process where both fighters alternated between wrestling phases against the fence and exchanges in the center of the cage, “Nacho” landed a perfectly timed knee that dropped his opponent. The Spaniard followed up with several heavy punches from half-guard before taking his opponent’s back as Adeshina was looking to escape. Once Campos gained the favorable position, it was only a matte…

Why Islam Makhachev prefers fighting undefeated contender over Ian Garry

Ultimate Fighting Championship welterweight ace Islam Makhachev believes a win over Michael Morales adds more to his legacy than a win over Ian Garry.

Makhachev (28-1) is expected to defend his welterweight title in August, although an opponent has yet to be finalized. While the division is teeming with contenders, Makhachev recently admitted that Garry is the frontrunner. However, Makhachev would prefer to defend his title against Morales (19-0) rather than Garry (17-1). Makhachev believes a win over Morales would add more to his legacy, as the Ecuadorian is undefeated, unlike Garry.

Makhachev was initially looking to defend his title against former champion Kamaru Usman. Everyone, including Usman himself, has counted him out of the race for the title shot. However, Makhachev still believes that “The Nigerian Nightmare” beats both Morales and Garry.

“If we pick between Morales and Ian, to be honest with you, in terms of my legacy, I would go with Morales,” Makh…

Former training partner predicts Conor McGregor will KO Max Holloway at UFC 329

Dillon Danis is making some bold predictions about Conor McGregor.

McGregor (22-6) is set to return to action in a welterweight matchup against Max Holloway (27-9) in the main event at UFC 329 on July 11 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. McGregor has opened as a +300 underdog, with fans and pundits expecting Holloway to dominate the former double champ.

However, McGregor’s training partner, Danis, believes otherwise. Danis believes McGregor’s dedication is getting underestimated before his return. McGregor’s fight against Holloway marks his return to action after five years. However, Danis believes ring rust is a mindset that McGregor can definitely beat. Danis predicts that “Notorious” will knock Holloway out within three rounds. “El Jefe” even predicts that McGregor will fight Islam Makhachev after beating Holloway.

“He’s always been a dedicated guy… Him not going to the White House card… He is living in the gym,” Danis told MMA Fighting. “He is bringing in tough…

Islam Makhachev blames Ilia Topuria for cancellation of UFC White House booking

Ultimate Fighting Championship welterweight king Islam Makhachev doubled down on his claims of having accepted a fight against Ilia Topuria.

Topuria is scheduled to defend his lightweight title against interim champion Justin Gaethje in the UFC White House: Freedom 250 main event on Sunday. According to reports, the original plan was for Topuria to challenge Makhachev for the welterweight title.

Topuria (17-0) initially blamed Makhachev (28-1) for the matchup falling through. Even Dana White said that Makhachev was out with a hand injury. However, Makhachev has thoroughly denied being injured or turning down a fight against Topuria. Makhachev recently reiterated that he had accepted the offer without any hesitation. However, Makhachev’s manager, Ali Abdelaziz, called him the very next day to inform that the booking was off. Makhachev claims negotiations failed when Topuria’s manager, Malki Kawa, demanded an insane fight purse. The Dagestani champ al…

Steve Garcia believes win over Diego Lopes puts him in title picture

Steve Garcia is hoping that an eight-fight win streak after prevailing at the White House will be enough to punch his ticket to gold.

Garcia opens the UFC White House card against two-time title challenger Diego Lopes on Sunday. Residing in the No. 3 and No. 12 spots at featherweight, respectively, on Sherdog’s Official Rankings, Garcia believes an upset over the top-ranked Brazilian immediately makes him relevant in the 145-pound title picture.

Garcia plans to dominate Lopes from the opening bell. While “Mean Machine” doesn’t want to divulge much, he advises fans not to blink. Garcia said in an interview with the UFC:

“Having an opponent like Diego Lopes, knowing where his ranking is at. Having the opportunity to fight someone that high, challenging myself, but also being able to put myself in a position where I could challenge for the title… I’m just gonna go out there and dominate him. Dominate him from the start of the bell to the end of the b…

UFC heavyweight contender on Alex Pereira: ‘He’s scared’

Josh Hokit believes he is not leaving the Ultimate Fighting Championship anytime soon.

Hokit (9-0) is scheduled to fight Derrick Lewis (29-13) in a heavyweight tilt at UFC White House: Freedom 250 on Sunday. Meanwhile, Alex Pereira (13-3) fights Ciryl Gane (13-2) for the interim heavyweight title in the co-main event.

Hokit has launched an unprovoked tirade on Pereira, targeting “Poatan” verbally during press conferences and run-ins at the fighter hotel. Pereira recently said Hokit’s UFC career might be in jeopardy. According to Pereira, while it is too late to boot Hokit from the White House card, it could be his last fight in the UFC. However, Hokit has shut down Pereira’s claims. “The Incredible Hok” says he recently signed an eight-fight deal with the UFC. Hokit believes he is not going anywhere, and Pereira is just being hopeful, as is scared.

“Pereira can say whatever,” Hokit said on UFC Embedded. “When you put on a fight like I put on last …

Brendan Allen: I can beat Sean Strickland in every aspect

Brendan Allen wants to avenge his loss against Sean Strickland.

Allen (27-7) was just 25 when he suffered his first loss in the Ultimate Fighting Championship against Strickland (31-7) in 2020. While Allen has since grown into a middleweight contender, Strickland has won the title twice, most recently against Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 328 last month.

Allen now wants to avenge his loss against Strickland. Allen believes that while he has developed substantially since his loss against Strickland, the champion is still the same fighter he faced in 2020. “All In” recently earned a unanimous decision win over Strickland’s teammate, Edmen Shahbazyan. Allen considers Shahbazyan a better version of Strickland. According to Allen, Shahbazyan is technically more sound than Strickland, even though his resume might not reflect that.

“[Strickland] is the same guy that I fought then, and I’m not,” Allen told Home of Fight. “Not even close to the same guy. I’m more …
