Former title challenger Marvin
Vettori is looking to bounce back from a loss to Jared
Cannonier by beating a recent foe for a second time. Looking
for revenge is Roman
Dolidze, who lost a unanimous decision to the Italian fighter
in 2023. Both men successfully made weight for the five-round
rematch. As for the rest of the card, three fighters missed weight:
Co-main event fighter Chidi
Njokuani came in 1.25 pounds over the welterweight limit for
his fight against Elizeu
Zaleski dos Santos; Josias
Musasa weighed in .5 pounds over the bantamweight limit for his
bout versus Carlos
Vera; and Diyar
Nurgozhay hit the scales at a staggering 4.5 pounds over for
his light heavyweight fight with Brendson
Ribeiro. All overweight fighters will be fined a percentage of
their purse, yet to be decided.
„The Italian Dream“ enters the fight having lost three of his last
five fights. Besides the aforementioned win over Dolidze, his only
other recent victory is a decision over Paulo Costa
in 2021. Losses to Cannonier, Robert
Whittaker and Israel
Adesanya have shown the 31-year-old fighter’s ceiling. Vettori
(19-7-1) officially stepped on the scale at 186 pounds on the
dot.
This marks the second UFC main event for Dolidze (14-3), who came
up short against Nassourdine
Imavov in his first five-round fight last year. Since then, „The Caucasian“ has put together back-to-back wins over Anthony
Smith and Kevin
Holland. The 36-year-old will look to continue what is
potentially his final high-level run by getting even with Vettori.
The Xtreme Couture product officially weighed 186 pounds for the
pivotal bout.
UFC Vegas 104 will stream in its entirety on ESPN+ on Saturday.
Prelims begin at 4 p.m. ET/1 p.m. PT, while the main card kicks off
at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT.
