Summary
Rogers Place in Edmonton hosts Saturday’s UFC Fight Night main event at 170 pounds, with Mike Malott favored at -135 against Joaquin Buckley at +114.
Buckley enters at a crossroads after six straight wins—including knockouts of Stephen Thompson and Colby Covington—gave way to back-to-back decision losses to Kamaru Usman and Sean Brady.
Malott brings a four-fight winning streak into his seventh straight UFC appearance in Canada, most recently stopping former title challenger Gilbert Burns by TKO.
The card starts at 5 p.m. ET for prelims and 8 p.m. ET for the main card, with Erin Blanchfield vs. Jasmine Jasudavicius set as the co-main event.
