Heavyweight: Chase Sherman vs Josh Parisian

Chas Sherman currently has a 16-10 record, with 15 knockouts including 15 knockouts. Sherman had two unsatisfactory UFC trips, and in 2018, he was released by the UFC for a three-game losing streak, and after a four-game winning streak outside the octagon, he was re-signed by the UFC last year, but he had another four-game losing streak, and if it weren't for his temporary firefighting in April this year, he would have left the UFC for the second time. But after a four-game losing streak, Sherman finally got a win when he finished Jared Vanderaaa, who also had a poor record, by TKO in July, a full five years after his last UFC victory.

Josh Parisian currently has a 15-5 record, including 11 knockouts and two submission wins.

Lightweight: Grant Dawson vs Mark Madsen

Grant Dawson currently has an 18-1 record and 1-1 draw, including 4 knockouts and 12 submission wins. Dawson, who has an unbeaten record since signing with the UFC through the inaugural season of "Challenger for White", has defeated six opponents in the octagon and played a draw, but Dawson has not attracted much attention due to the low gold content of his opponent. Dawson has a high finishing percentage, his skills on the ground and have been naked nine times, including a clap of defeat from Jared Gordon in a recent match and a submission to Darik Minner. If the game continues to be won, Dawson will be expected to enter the official rankings.

Mark Madsen currently holds a 12-fight professional MMA record, including three knockouts and three submission wins. Madsen is a skilled wrestler who represented Denmark at the 2016 Olympics and won a silver medal in wrestling. After signing with the UFC in 2019, Madsen won all four fights and easily crushed his opponent in his debut, but he has not won easily in recent bouts, such as a narrow split decision victory over veteran Clay Guida. Madsen faced the strong Vinc Pichel in April and won by unanimous decision, but his strength still needs to be tested.

Featherweight: Darrick Minner vs Shayilan Nuerdanbieke

Shaylan Nurdanbek currently has a 38-10 record, including 18 knockouts and 10 submission wins. Shayilan signed with the UFC last year through the UFC's elite academy program in Shanghai, but he lost to Joshua Culibao by unanimous decision in his Octagon debut in May. In the next two games, Shaylan won as he defeated Sean Soriano and T.J. Brown by decision, maturing in his skills. Before coming to the UFC, Shaylan had a very rich experience in racing, which also became the basis for his rapid integration into the UFC environment.

Darik Minner currently has a 26-13 record, including one knockout and 22 submission wins. Minner's game experience is also very rich, but he always wins and losses, and the number of consecutive wins is not many. He participated in the season 3 "Challenger for White" tryout, but was submitted by Herbert Burns. Minner, who has won several minor martial arts titles, signed with the UFC in 2020 and won 2 of his 5 fights. He was defeated by TKO and unanimous decision by veterans Darren Elkins and Ryan Hall in two appearances last year, marking the first consecutive defeat in his career.
