I think Nassourdine was the better man today. He was very fast, as I was expecting. He did very good in the fight. I couldn’t really adapt (my strategy) that much. I wanted to make this fight entertaining for the fans and the UFC. So, I tried to strike with one of the best strikers in the world and that’s what you guys saw: a great war.
Borralho’s prior fight was in August 2024 at UFC on ESPN 62, where he beat Jared Cannonier by unanimous decision. His record is 17 wins and two losses; one fight was ruled a no-contest.
Imavov’s previous bout took place in February 2025 at UFC Fight Night 250, when he defeated Israel Adesanya by second-round TKO. Imavov’s record is 17 wins and four losses; one fight was ruled a no-contest.
