    Joe Pyfer (11-2-0) has made every post a winner since earning his UFC contract with a second-round KO on Dana White’s Contender Series. The 27-year-old has produced a pair of round-one UFC knockouts to prove he belongs in the premier MMA promotion. He will enjoy a significant height advantage here and is expected to continue on his winning ways against another stand-up striker.

    Abdul Razak Alhassan (12-5-0) endured a rough patch of three straight losses through 2020 and 2021 but is 2-1 from his last three outings, suggesting a return to form. The 38-year-old throws heavy blows, and all 12 of his career wins have come via TKO/KO. His losses have predominantly come via decision, so the native of Ghana will be looking to land hard and land early in this explosive match-up.

    Alex Morono (23-8-0) is 5-1 in his most recent UFC appearances, with stoppage wins over MMA legends Cowboy Cerrone and Tim Means. The 33-year-old is a busy fighter who throws strikes from a range of angles, making him a tough opponent to read and counter. Morono’s record is almost evenly split between knockouts, submissions, and decision victories, granting him many potential paths to victory.

    Joaquin Buckley (16-6-0) turned around a two-fight losing slump by knocking out Andre Fialho with a powerful head kick in May 2023. The 29-year-old possesses enormous power but can get a little scrappy and impatient at times. He has also suffered from fatigue in bouts that go the distance, and his best chances for a win here appear to be in the opening two rounds.

    Drew Dober (26-12-0) is a hot and cold competitor who has the skills and physical attributes to be a top-ranked lightweight. He boasts a nasty knockout win over Bobby Green, who fights in the main event of this card but suffered a first-round stoppage loss to Matt Frevola at his most recent appearance. The 34-year-old is almost too tough for his own good and would greatly benefit from employing a slightly more defensive strategy.

    Ricky Glenn (22-7-2) has only produced a single victory from his last four outings but did eke out a majority draw result in October 2021 against Grant Dawson, who headlines this event. The 27-year-old suffered a heavy knockout to Christos Giagos when last in the octagon and has taken a six-month break to recover. This looks like another stern test, though.

    Alexander Hernandez (17-7-0) has been inconsistent of late and is 2-3 since 2021. A clever opponent with strong adaptive abilities can take advantage of the 31-year-old’s technical flaws in his game. Hernandez will need to produce one of his best efforts in this contest against a solid opponent who is riding a wave of confidence.

    Bill Algeo (14-6-0) has looked sharp in recent times, with four wins and a single loss since 2022. The defeat was a split decision versus Andre Fili that could have gone either way, and Algeo immediately bounced back from the disappointment with a submission victory by T.J. Brown. The 34-year-old will enjoy a height and reach advantage and appears to be coming into his prime years as an MMA athlete.
