UFC London: Movsar Evloev
Movsar Evloev (19-0) made his UFC debut in April 2019 in a featherweight contest against Choi Seung-woo. At the time he stepped into the UFC Octagon for the first time, Evloev was 10-0 and coming off a defense of the M-1 Global bantamweight crown. Evloev, defeated Choi via unanimous decision.
Over the next five years, Evloev would climb the featherweight rankings, facing progressively tougher opponents under the UFC banner. In 2021, Evloev scored a decision over Hakeem Dawodu, which set him up for a January 2022 matchup against Ilia Topuria. However, Evloev was forced from that card after testing positive for COVID-19. In February 2024, Topuria would defeat Alexander Volkanovski to become the UFC featherweight champion.
Evloev next competed in June 2022, defeating Dan Ige. He followed that with wins over Diego Lopes in May 2023 and Arnold Allen in January 2024.
The 32-year-old Evloev is coming off a statement win over former UFC bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling. Evloev won that three-round contest at UFC 310 in December 2024 via unanimous decision.
Evloev was booked for a July 2025 matchup with Aaron Pico, but that fight fell through due to an Evloev injury.
Today, Evloev is the No. 1 fighter in the official UFC featherweight rankings.
UFC London: Lerone Murphy
Lerone Murphy (17-0-1) opened his UFC career with a 2019 draw against Zubaira Tukhugov. Since then, the 34 year old has done nothing but win. Murphy has gone 9-0 with the UFC since that draw, racking up wins over name opponents in Edson Barboza, Dan Ige, and Josh Emmett.
In August 2025, Murphy welcomed free agent signing Aaron Pico to the UFC at UFC 319. Murphy scored a highlight-reel first-round knockout win over Pico in that bout.
