The UFC 318 prelims were highlighted by a streak of mismatches, which saw the early portion of the card result in a series of finishes. Fans thought the crush-matches would continue into the main card,

Michael Johnson has weighed in on Tony Ferguson’s upcoming boxing debut. Longtime UFC lightweight Johnson is still winning at 39 years old, putting together an impressive three-fight win streak with a near-finish of Daniel Zellhuber on Dustin Poirier’s retirement card at UFC 318 on Saturday.

Daniel Rodriguez and Kevin Holland came to blows Saturday at UFC 318 and those in attendance at Smoothie King Center in New Orleans were treated to an all-time-wild brawl.

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) was at it again last night (Sat., July 19, 2025) with UFC 318 from inside Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, La., which saw Max Holloway defeat Dustin Poirier via unanimous decision (see it here).
