Summary UFC Fight Night: Gamrot vs. Salkilld is officially on for Saturday, August 8, 2026, live from the Meta APEX in Las Vegas. All 24 fighters across the 12-bout card successfully made weight, ensuring a full night of action. This includes the highly anticipated lightweight main event featuring Mateusz Gamrot, ranked No. 8, against the fast-rising No. 12 contender Quillan Salkilld, who makes his first UFC main event appearance. Nevada's one-pound allowance for non-title fights meant all weigh-in readings were legal.

Other key matchups include Amanda Lemos facing late replacement Alexia Thainara, and Miles Johns seeking a crucial win.
Every fighter on Saturday's UFC card at the Apex weighed in successfully. That includes the lightweight main event between Mateusz Gamrot and the fast-rising Quillan Salkilld. Let's talk MMA.
Nevada allows a one-pound allowance on non-title fights, which is why the 155.5 and 145.5 readings are all legal rather than misses. Gamrot enters ranked No. 8 at lightweight and Salkilld No. 12, in the Australian's first UFC main event. Alexia Thainara stepped in against Amanda Lemos after Denise Gomes fell out.
Per the UFC's official results , August 7.
If you're looking for hidden gems on this card, take a look at the women's strawweight battle between Amanda Lemos and another rising star, Alexia Thainara. The latter is a very eccentric and memorable fighter who always brings tons of energy into the Octagon. She's also on a wild run up the rankings. A win over Lemos might push her close to a title shot.
Miles Johns is getting what could be his final chance to make a mark in the UFC. He comes into his fight with Gianni Vasquez as a last-minute replacement. Johns should fight with purpose and desperation.
Dana White's Contender Series also runs every Tuesday at the Meta APEX on Paramount+ through the fall.
