Three fights added to UFC 318, including a banger bantamweight scrap

Enjoyable fights alert!

This summer season’s UFC 318 goes down on Sat., July 19, 2025, inside Smoothie King Middle in New Orleans, Louisiana, and is headlined by the trilogy bout between Dustin Poirier and Max Holloway.

As we speak, three extra fights had been introduced to fill out the undercard.

By far, probably the most enjoyable struggle that was introduced was No. 12-ranked Bantamweight Kyler Phillips vs. surging Brazilian killer Vinicius Oliveira, who’s newly ranked No. 15.

Oliveira (22-3) is coming off a Combat of the Night time-winning efficiency in opposition to Stated Nurmagomedov at UFC Saudi Arabia earlier this yr. “Lokdog” is at the moment 3-0 within the promotion and turned heads in his UFC debut by touchdown among the best flying knee knockouts you’ll ever see (watch highlights).

Phillips (12-3) had his three-fight profitable streak snapped in opposition to Rob Font in his final outing, dropping a unanimous determination. Previous to his loss, he defeated Pedro Munhoz, Raoni Barcelos, and Marcelo Rojo.

This struggle goes to be very entertaining.

Former top-15 ranked (and retired) Jimmy Crute collides in opposition to Poland’s Marcin Prachnio in a Mild Heavyweight showdown.

Crute (12-4-2) returned from his almost two-year retirement at UFC 312 in Feb., however fought Rodolfo Bellato to a majority draw. The 29-year-old Australian hasn’t had his hand raised since knocking out Modestas Bukauskas in 2020.

Prachnio (17-8) will return from a year-long layoff when he enters the cage in July. He was final in motion in opposition to Bukauskas at UFC 304, getting submitted within the third spherical. The Polish fighter has alternated wins and losses in his final 5 fights.

Lastly, Strawweight Carli Judice will get a hometown crowd as she takes on Brazil’s Nicolle Caliari. Ag.Combat first reported the information.

Judice (4-2) scored her first UFC win two months in the past at UFC Vegas 104, when he starched Yuneisy Duben within the first spherical with a head kick (watch highlights).

Caliari (8-3) continues to be in search of her first UFC dub. She misplaced her UFC debut on the primary card of the yr (UFC Vegas 101), dropping a cut up determination to Ernesta Kareckaite.
