Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is live TODAY (Sat., Aug. 8, 2026) with UFC Vegas 120 , streaming live online via Paramount+ . The event goes down at the familiar META APEX in Las Vegas, Nevada. Our main event tonight is Mateusz Gamrot vs. Quillan Salkilld .
UFC Vegas 120 Preview
We are back at UFC’s new and improve APEX venue for the first time since April ( latest renovation details here ). And we’ve got a card that doesn’t look too great on paper. However, many thought that about UFC Belgrade … and look what happened there . Tonight’s ho-hum card, on paper, is topped by a pivotal 155-pound showdown between top-ranked contenders in Gamrot ( No. 8 ) versus Salkilld ( No. 12 ).
Gamrot has been inconsistent since switching KSW for UFC and he’s coming off a decent win over Esteban Ribovics , which followed a very lopsided loss to Charles Oliveira ( re-live that here ). His inconsistency has left him on the outside looking in in regard to UFC’s Lightweight title picture.
Salkilld burst onto the scene in 2024 and has looked sensational with his quick knockouts and dominant wrestling. Last time out he put away Beneil Dariush in quick fashion, showing the mixed martial arts (MMA) world that he means business. A win over Gamrot will catapult him up the rankings and set up some fights with the real elites of the division .
The co-main event is Diego Ferreira vs. Billy Quarantillo . That’s at Lightweight, too, but these guys are nowhere near the rankings. They have a combined 16-12 record in UFC and both are coming off knockout losses. Rounding out the main card are Darren Elkins vs. Yadier del Valle , Amanda Lemos vs. Alexia Thainara and Ty Miller vs. Billy Ray Goff .
The top “Prelim” tonight is Steven Asplund vs. Guilherme Pat . There’s also Louie Sutherland vs. Jose Montanha and Diyar Nurgozhay vs. Bruno Lopes.
