The Octagon returns to Nevada for tonight’s UFC Vegas 105 event, a 12-bout fight card headlined by Josh Emmett vs. Lerone Murphy.
Emmett (19-4 MMA) will be returning to action for the first time since scoring a devastating knockout victory over Bryce Mitchell this past December at UFC 296 (see that here). Prior to that stunning finish, the 40-year-old had suffered back-to-back losses against Ilia Topuria and Yair Rodriguez respectively.
Meanwhile, Lerone Murphy (15-0-1 MMA) will enter tonight’s contest sporting a seven-fight winning streak, his most recent being a unanimous decision victory over Dan Ige at last October’s UFC 308 event. ‘The Miracle’ has won four of his past five fights by way of decision.
UFC Vegas 105 is co-headlined by a men’s featherweight bout between Pat Sabatini and Joanderson Brito.
Sabatini (19-5 MMA) was most previously seen in action this past October, where he scored a first-round submission victory over Jonathan Pearce. The 34-year-old has gone 3-2 over his past five Octagon appearances overall.
Meanwhile, Joanderson Brito (17-4-1 MMA) was last seen in action this past September, where he wound up on the wrong end of a split decision against William Gomis. Prior to that setback, ‘Tubarao’ had put together a five-fight winning streak, with all five of those victories coming by way of stoppages.
