Montes locks up anaconda choke

UFC newcomer Alberto Montes put Ricky Turcios to sleep with an anaconda choke, scoring the finish at the 0:40 mark of the second round.

The 31-year-old Venezuelan signed with the promotion after a win on Dana White's Contender Series last October.

Turcios, who won "The Ultimate Fighter 29" in 2021, is now riding a three-fight losing streak after falling to 2-4 in the Octagon.

Durden's losing streak continues

Cody Durden suffered his fourth straight loss, dropping a unanimous decision to Nyamjargal Tumendemberel at flyweight. The judges scored the matchup 30-27, 30-27, and 29-28 in Tumendemberel's favor.

Tumendemberel earned four takedowns and nearly seven minutes of control time, while Durden completed three-of-eight takedown attempts for almost five minutes of control time. However, Tumendemberel had a 25-8 edge in significant strikes.

Sumudaerji pitches a shutout

Sumudaerji took a patient approach and dominated Jesus Aguilar in a flyweight bout. He used his 9.5-inch reach advantage to pick his opponent apart on the feet, earning a unanimous decision victory. All three judges scored the fight 30-27.

The 30-year-old is now riding a three-fight winning streak and hasn't lost since October 2024.

Nurgozhay cruises past Tobias

Light heavyweight Diyar Nurgozhay earned his first UFC win, defeating Rafael Tobias via unanimous decision (30-27, 29-28, 29-28).

The 28-year-old Kazakhstan native kept Tobias at bay on the feet throughout the fight, outlanding him 94-39 in significant strikes and 100-52 in total strikes. Nurgozhay improved to 1-2 in the promotion.

Bellato gets the action started with 1st-round TKO

Rodolfo Bellato opened up the UFC 326 preliminary card with a bang, finishing Luke Fernandez with strikes in the first round of their light heavyweight bout. Bellato dropped Fernandez with a left hook and then finished the job with ground-and-pound.

The 30-year-old Brazilian, who was the underdog coming in, handed Fernandez his first career loss.

Pre-fight notes

Holloway is defending the symbolic BMF championship for the second time. The 34-year-old Hawaiian is coming off a unanimous decision win over Dustin Poirier at UFC 318 last July and is looking to improve to 5-1 in his past six Octagon appearances. Holloway, a former featherweight champion and one of the greatest fighters in the division's history, is now permanently competing at lightweight and will be one step closer to an undisputed title shot if he wins Saturday.

Oliveira is looking to win consecutive fights for the first time since 2022. The former lightweight champion has experienced mixed results in the cage over the last two years, earning wins over Mateusz Gamrot and Michael Chandler and suffering losses to Ilia Topuria and Arman Tsarukyan. Oliveira, a 36-year-old from Brazil, is hoping to get revenge against Holloway after suffering an injury TKO loss to him in a UFC Fight Night main event in August 2025 in Saskatoon, Canada.

In the UFC 326 co-main event, Caio Borralho and Reinier de Ridder will square off in a middleweight bout.
