UFC Vegas 113 Preview
UFC Vegas 113 happens TONIGHT (Sat., Feb. 7, 2026) inside the newly-renamed META APEX venue in Las Vegas, Nevada. This is the first-ever APEX card of the Paramount+ era and … it’s okay.
The main event tonight is Mario Bautista vs. Vinicius Oliveira in the Bantamweight division. Both of these guys will be hoping a big win helps them get toward the front of the line that is forming behind new 135-pound kingpin, Petr Yan.
Our co-main is Amir Albazi vs. Kyoji Horiguchi and that has title implications, too, perhaps more immediate ones. Horiguchi returned to the Octagon last year and pasted Tagir Ulanbekov (re-live that here). If he takes out the perennially top-ranked Albazi, he might get fast -tracked to a title shot against new division roost-ruler, Joshua Van.
Rounding out UFC Vegas 113’s main card is Jailton Almeida vs. Rizvan Kuniev. There’s been some wild betting activity on that one. There’s also Michal Oleksiejczuk vs. Marc-Andre Barriault (that should be a banger) and Jean Matsumoto versus the undefeated Farid Basharat.
UFC Vegas 113’s “Prelims” are headlined by Dustin Jacoby vs. Julius Walker. There’s also Wang Cong vs. Edourda Moura. Javid Basharat was supposed to fight Said Nurmagomedov. However, Nurmagomedov is out of that fight and he has been replaced at short notice by Gianni Vazquez (full story here).

UFC Vegas 113 Play-By-Play Updates
Prelims
Javid Basharat vs. Gianni Vazquez: Basharat did what was expected, in the first round, out wrestling the short notice newcomer. But he was rocked by Vazquez in the second and needed to dig deep to turn the fight back into a wrestling match. In the third Basharat was able to settle things down again and ride out the decision (a closer decision than he would have expected). Vazquez earned a lot of respect in this bout, though. We’ll be seeing him again.
Official decision: Javid Basharat def. Gianni Vazquez by unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28).
Wang Cong vs. Eduarda Moura: Cong’s high powered striking almost finished this fight in round one. But Moura was able to survive to see the second. In the second she was able to get the fight to the ground and threaten with submissions for most of the round. In the all important third round, Cong was able to land some hard shots and seriously bloody up Moura to earn the 29-28 win on my scorecard.
Official decision: Wang Cong def. Edourda Moura by unanimous decision (30-27, 29-28. 29-28)
Muin Gafarov vs. Jakub Wiklacz: Gafurov won the striking battle in the first round and Wiklacz dominated on the ground in the second. Gafurov looked on his way to winning a decision in the third, as Wiklacz seemed to tire. Wiklacz locked on a Hail Mary guillotine, though, which caused a tap right at the final buzzer. A replay was used to determine that Gafurov tapped just before the bell.
Official decision: Jakub Wiklacz def. Muin Gafurov by submission (guillotine), round 3 (3:59)
Klaudia Sygula vs. Priscila Cachoeria: These two put on a fun fight to start the night. Cachoeira came forwards throwing big shots, but she ended up walking into a wood chipper. Sygula peppered her with combos, splitting her open and slowing her down. Sygula won every round on my card.
Official decision: Klaudia Sygula def. Priscilla Cachoeira by unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)
