UFC Fight Night: Reinier de Ridder vs. Brendan Allen arrives in Vancouver this Saturday. MMA News provides the official weigh-in results ahead of the action.
This event marks the seventh visit of the Octagon to British Columbia’s largest city. UFC last appeared at Rogers Arena when Amanda Nunes defeated Irene Aldana at UFC 289 to retain her women’s bantamweight title before retiring.
Middleweight Title Eliminator Takes Center Stage
The main event serves as a crucial middleweight title eliminator. Former two-division ONE champion Reinier de Ridder faces Brendan Allen, who replaces the injured Anthony “Fluffy” Hernandez. De Ridder enters the fight off a narrow decision win over former middleweight champion Robert Whittaker at UFC Abu Dhabi in July. He now holds a perfect 4-0 UFC record after finishing Gerald Meerschaert, Kevin Holland, and Bo Nickal. Allen comes off a victory against Marvin Vettori at UFC 318, a bout that earned Fight of the Night honors.
Co-Main and Key Matchups
Kevin Holland meets Mike Malott in the co-main event. Holland seeks redemption after a loss to Daniel Rodriguez at UFC 318. Malott looks to build momentum following his knockout of Charles Radtke at UFC 315 in May.
The main card also features bantamweight Marlon “Chito” Vera facing Aiemann Zahabi. Women’s strawweight contenders Manon Fiorot and Jasmine Jasudavicius battle in a pivotal matchup. Other bouts include bantamweights Cody Gibson vs. Aori Qileng and lightweights Kyle Nelson vs. Matt Frevola.
