The Octagon remains in Nevada for tonight’s UFC Vegas 91 event, a thirteen-bout fight card headlined by Matheus Nicolau vs. Alex Perez.
Nicolau (19-3 MMA) will enter the contest looking to rebound, this after suffering a knockout loss to Brandon Royval in his most previous effort twelve months ago. That setback had snapped a six-fight win streak for the Brazilian, which included four straight wins inside of the Octagon.
Meanwhile, Alex Perez (24-8 MMA) will be looking to snap a three-fight losing skid when he takes to the Octagon this evening. The former flyweight title challenger is coming off a unanimous decision loss to Muhammad Mokaev in his most recent effort last month.
UFC Vegas 91 is co-headlined by a light heavyweight battle between Ryan Spann and Bogdan Guskov.
Spann (21-9 MMA) will enter the contest on a two-fight losing streak, his latest setback coming at the hands of Anthony Smith this past August. Prior to his recent losses, ‘Superman’ was coming off back-to-back stoppage wins over Dominick Reyes and Ion Cutelaba respectively.
Meanwhile, Bogdan Guskov (15-3 MMA) last fought and defeated Zac Pauga (6-3 MMA) by KO this past February.
