Follow along throughout the event for the latest results and highlights of any knockouts and submission finishes.
Here is a look at the entire card. The results will be filled in from the bottom of the table below, and the highlights of the finishes will have their own section.

Romious was already in a tough situation. He lost his main roster debut via unanimous decision to Gaston Bolaños in November 2024. Saturday's fight against Chang Ho Lee is off to a rough start, as Romious missed weight on Friday by 3.5 pounds. The fight will now take place at a 139-pound catchweight.
This puts even more pressure on Romious to win. If he loses his second straight after missing weight, it'll put him in a position he doesn't want to be in with the promotion.

At minus-700, Belbita is the biggest underdog on the card. She's also on a two-fight losing streak. If she loses to Dione Barbosa on Saturday, she could find herself separated from the promotion next week.
More than anyone else on the card, Belbita needs to come away from the Apex victorious.

Satybaldiev is the reigning Legacy Fighting Alliance light heavyweight champion. On Saturday, he'll make his UFC debut, but it happens at heavyweight.
Satybaldiev stepped in on two days' notice to replace Kennedy Nzechukwu in a heavyweight clash against Martin Buday. On Friday, Satybaldiev weighed in at 222.5 pounds while Buday tipped the scales at 265. The 42.5-pound weight difference should look even bigger than it sounds in the Octagon.
It'll be interesting to see if Satybaldiev can overcome the size disadvantage.

Including Satybaldiev, there are three fighters making their main roster UFC debut. Torrez Finney finally makes it to the main roster after a record three wins on Dana White's Contender Series. Finney and Satybaldiev will be joined by Daniel Frunza as main roster newcomers.
Finney faces Robert Valentin, and Frunza will battle Rhys McKee. Fans should pay close attention to what happens in these three fights.

UFC Coach Reveals He Nearly Pulled Out 'Half-Dead' Merab Dvalishvili from Title Defense Due to Severe Medical Issues
Merab Dvalishvili has built an impressive name for himself as the bantamweight champion since winning the belt when he defeated then-champion Sean O'Malley at UFC 306. Nicknamed 'The Machine' due to his gritty, cardio-reliant, never-say-die attitude in the Octagon, he has built a reputation on his toughness during fights. Even if he fails to secure a takedown, what makes him dangerous is his mentality to shoot for another, results be damned. He may not be the most technical or 'pretty' fighter to watch, but no one can deny he has an unshakeable will to win at whatever cost. Recently, it was revealed that the UFC bantamweight champion's first title defense at UFC 311 against Umar Nurmagomedov was nearly scrapped after his coach, John Wood, considered withdrawing him due to a severe staph infection and open wound. UFC president Dana WhitePhoto By David Fitzgerald/Sportsfile via Getty Images Wood revealed that Dvalishvili was heading into the fight battling antibiotics, pain, and a gruesome staph infection that risked his clearance. Despite the dire circumstances, Dvalishvili insisted on competing, showcasing his trademark toughness in a gritty five-round decision win.. Advertisement "Merab was half-dead for that fight,' Wood said during an interview with MMA Fighting. 'He had an open wound, he had a staph infection, he was on all kinds of antibiotics." Wood even admitted, 'If it was up to me, honestly, I probably would've pulled him out of the fight... That dude could barely walk, but then he'd go spar ten rounds and look phenomenal.' Ahead of his rematch with Sean O'Malley at UFC 316, a fight which some believe is UFC President Dana White's way of angling for a more marketable bantamweight champion, Wood believes that 'The Machine' will continue to leave fans in awe of his toughness and prove his doubters wrong. 'The way that Merab fights, what he brings to the table is just different. People do not understand it,' Wood remarked. 'Sean kind of knows that now. Tim [Welch] knows that... I think it's going to be even more defeating and deflating than it was the first time.'

UFC Fighter Ariane da Silva's Brain Tumor Made Weight Cut Impossible, Now Promotion May Cut Her After Third Consecutive Loss
UFC Fighter Ariane da Silva's Brain Tumor Made Weight Cut Impossible, Now Promotion May Cut Her After Third Consecutive Loss originally appeared on Athlon Sports. UFC fighters routinely push their bodies to dangerous extremes just to step on the scale—starving for weeks, sweating out water in saunas until they faint, and enduring kidney-straining dehydration protocols. The sport's weight-cutting culture forces athletes to gamble with their health, often walking the line between competition and hospitalization in pursuit of a size advantage. Advertisement These practices persist despite medical emergencies. Behind every weigh-in, there's often an untold story of suffering that does not get the spotlight as much as the knockout finishes and the trash talk. Dana WhiteGetty Images UFC flyweight Ariane da Silva's shocking six-pound weight miss ahead of her UFC 316 bout against Wang Cong was caused by complications from a benign pituitary tumor, her coach and husband Renato da Silva revealed during an interview with MMA Fighting. The Brazilian fighter, who tipped the scales at 132 pounds—well above the 126-pound non-title limit—underwent a dangerous weight cut attempt while managing hormonal imbalances triggered by the tumor. Advertisement Blood tests during her camp showed elevated prolactin and cortisol levels, leading to the discovery of the tumor, which disrupted her body's ability to shed weight safely. The situation worsened when da Silva's team enlisted a new nutritionist, whose strategy to retain water until the final days of the weight cut, backfired catastrophically. Renato described harrowing symptoms during the final push, including double vision, slurred speech, and loss of motor control—clear signs her body was shutting down. He emphasized that UFC medical staff intervened to halt the cut after deeming it life-threatening, saying, 'She wasn't walking right, blinking too slow, and couldn't focus.' Advertisement Her coach's decision to allow her to continue to fight despite these issues was baffling and was met with criticism by some people online. SportingNews journalist Val Dewar shared the interview on X (formerly Twitter), and expressed his opinion that 'Fighting with a tumor in your f— brain, even a benign one, seems like a bad Idea. Like, [a] really, really bad idea.' Her opponent Wang Cong was gracious enough to agree to a catchweight bout despite the weight disparity and accepted 30% of da Silva's purse. Wang also expressed sympathy on social media towards da Silva and her struggle trying to make weight, saying, 'After she came out, I went over to see her situation. Fortunately, there is no big problem, because it's not easy for every athlete.' Advertisement Da Silva ultimately lost a unanimous decision to Cong, extending her skid to three fights and putting her in the crosshairs of being cut from the promotion. The incident casts a spotlight on MMA's weight-cutting crisis, where fighters often gamble with extreme measures to hit weight targets before a fight. Da Silva's case is uniquely alarming due to the tumor's role, raising questions about whether she should have been cleared to fight at all. The UFC has yet to address if da Silva will receive medical suspension or specialized support moving forward.

UFC 316 Nearly Derailed by Chaos as Crowd Barrier Collapses During Merab Dvalishvili's Walkout (Video)
UFC 316 Nearly Derailed by Chaos as Crowd Barrier Collapses During Merab Dvalishvili's Walkout (Video) originally appeared on Athlon Sports. When UFC fans attend an event, they anticipate knockouts and submissions, and rarely consider the unpredictable hazards that can occur due to negligence from event organizers. UFC athletes train to handle opponents, not collapsing barriers, rogue spectators, or last-minute logistical nightmares that test their focus. After last night, however, it seems like fighters will have to get used to adapting to whatever madness unfolds on fight night, as it is possible that chaos can erupt outside the Octagon before they face their opponent. Advertisement UFC 316's main event nearly turned disastrous before the fighters even reached the Octagon, as a railing collapsed during bantamweight champion Merab Dvalishvili's walkout, sending fans and a camera crew tumbling onto the walkway. UFC CEO Dana WhitePhoto by Chris Unger/Zuffa LLC Watch a clip of the incident here: Security personnel swiftly intervened, preventing the champion from being caught in the chaos, though a cameraman was knocked to the ground amid the scramble. 'Everybody was hanging over the edge, and it collapsed,' UFC CEO Dana White remarked at the post-fight press conference. 'Thank God this was a low one, not a high one.' Fortunately, no injuries were reported, though the UFC faced immediate scrutiny over venue safety protocols. Advertisement Merab Dvalishvili reacted to the UFC 316 barrier collapse with his trademark humor and professionalism. 'What happened was, I was walking and people [tried] to touch me and I [tried] to jump and touch them. I guess they pushed the barrier, and it went up,' Dvalishvili recalled. They almost kicked me in the head and knocked me out before I walked in.'' The champion's ability to shrug off the walkout chaos and dominate O'Malley, submitting him via third-round north-south choke, further cemented his reputation as one of MMA's most unflappable stars. Regarding his mental state after the incident, Merab said, 'I saw what happened, and I'm just a professional; there was nothing I could do at that time. I cannot really help people. This happened, and I had to make it to the octagon because I was fighting.'
