UFC 317 adds featherweight banger: Hyder Amil vs. Jose Delgado
Two promising featherweight up-and-comers will bring the violence against one another during UFC International Fight Week.
At UFC 317, Hyder Amil and Jose Delgado will face off in a featherweight fight. The event takes place June 28 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Two people with knowledge of the matchup recently informed MMA Junkie of the booking but asked to remain anonymous because the promotion has yet to make an official announcement.
Amil (11-0 MMA, 3-0 UFC) has thrilled fans since his Dana White's Contender Series appearance in 2023. His UFC victories have come against Fernie Garcia, Jeong Yeong Lee (in a wild 65-second fight), and William Gomis.
Delgado (9-1 MMA, 1-0 UFC) competed Feb. 15 when he knocked out Connor Matthews in under three minutes in his UFC debut. The victory came on the heels of a big knee knockout vs. Ernie Juarez on Dana White's Contender Series.

Macy Chiasson vs. Ketlen Vieira prediction, pick, start time for UFC on ESPN 68
Macy Chiasson vs. Ketlen Vieira prediction, pick, start time for UFC on ESPN 68 After last minute issues on the scale, Macy Chiasson and Ketlen Vieira will now meet at featherweight. Will it go the distance? Macy Chiasson and Ketlen Vieira meet Saturday on the main card of UFC on ESPN 68 at UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Check out this quick breakdown of the matchup from MMA Junkie analyst Dan Tom. Last event: 3-1 UFC main cards, 2025: 46-39-1 Macy Chiasson vs. Ketlen Vieira UFC on ESPN 68 preview Chiasson (10-3 MMA, 8-3 UFC) enters this one on back-to-back wins at 135 pounds: a first-round stoppage of Pannie Kianzad last March, followed by a second-round TKO of Mayra Bueno Silva last June. Chiasson has fought at featherweight when the division still had a pulse, and recorded a split decision victory over Norma Dumont in her last fight at that weight. ... Vieira (14-4 MMA, 8-4 UFC) came in heavy for the second time in her UFC tenure. The career bantamweight has not fought at 145 pounds during her UFC run. Vieira will look to bounce back from a unanimous decision loss to Kayla Harrison at UFC 307 in October. Prior to that setback, she beat Pannie Kianzad by unanimous decision in July 2023. Macy Chiasson vs. Ketlen Vieira UFC on ESPN 68 expert pick, prediction With the relentless UFC schedule making it extra difficult to keep cards together (much less hold up to any sort of standard), this bout between two top-ranked bantamweights, Chiasson and Vieira, will now take place at the defunct weight class of featherweight. Although I was already picking Chiasson to win, it worries me for Vieira's sake that the Brazilian was the one who requested the weight change. Both women are large for the division and have difficulty making the weight, but this move from Vieira could bode badly for her already suspect output in fights. Chiasson, on the other hand, has looked to be trending upward as she finally seems to be putting all her skills together. It's probably a bolder prediction than I'm making it out to be, but I have a sneaky suspicion that Chiasson will turn up the heat and get Vieira out of there via a second-round submission. Macy Chiasson vs. Ketlen Vieira UFC on ESPN 68 odds The oddsmakers and the public slightly favor the American, listing Chiasson -120 and Vieira -102 via FanDuel. Macy Chiasson vs. Ketlen Vieira UFC on ESPN 68 start time, how to watch Chiasson and Vieira are expected to walk to the cage at approximately 9:40 p.m. ET. The fight broadcasts on ESPN+.

Dustin Jacoby vs. Bruno Lopes prediction, pick, start time for UFC on ESPN 68
Dustin Jacoby vs. Bruno Lopes prediction, pick, start time for UFC on ESPN 68 Dustin Jacoby has significanly more experience under the UFC lights than Bruno Lopes. Will that come into play in their UFC on ESPN 68 main card bout? Dustin Jacoby and Bruno Lopes meet Saturday on the main card of UFC on ESPN 68 at UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Check out this quick breakdown of the matchup from MMA Junkie analyst Dan Tom. Last event: 3-1 UFC main cards, 2025: 46-39-1 Dustin Jacoby vs. Bruno Lopes UFC on ESPN 68 preview Jacoby (20-9-1 MMA, 8-6-1 UFC) will look to keep the momentum rolling after a Performance of the Night knockout of Vitor Petrino in December. The result snapped a two-fight skid. Although he's gone 3-4 over his last seven, each victory was a bonus-earning finish. ... Lopes (14-1 MMA, 1-0 UFC) enters his second UFC bout against an octagon veteran. In his debut in January, Lopes won a unanimous decision over Magomed Gadzhiyasulov. The Dana White's Contender Series veteran is currently on a three-fight winning streak. Dustin Jacoby vs. Bruno Lopes UFC on ESPN 68 expert pick, prediction Filling out the main card is a light heavyweight bout between Jacoby and Lopes. Although Lopes has a solid record on paper, the opponent and the setting are an undeniable (and undeserved) step down for Jacoby. However, if Jacoby can avoid the trap-fight sensibilities at hand, I think he should roll in this spot. The smaller octagon of the Apex will likely assist Lopes' cage-clinching efforts, but I'm not sure he has the speed, skill, or power to stop a guy like Jacoby. Aside from shoring up his takedown defense and getup abilities, Jacoby has the gas tank and composure to rally on tiring, lesser-experienced foes. I'll take Jacoby to pick up the proverbial pack once Lopes drops it, forcing a stoppage via strikes in Round 2. Dustin Jacoby vs. Bruno Lopes UFC on ESPN 68 odds The oddsmakers and the public favor the American fighter, listing Jacoby -210 and Lopes +168 via FanDuel. Dustin Jacoby vs. Bruno Lopes UFC on ESPN 68 start time, how to watch Jacoby and Lopes are expected to walk to the cage at approximately 10:40 p.m. ET. The fight broadcasts on ESPN+.
