For the first time in 2026, the UFC is heading to the APEX.
UFC Vegas 113 Preview Show: What’s at stake for Mario Bautista and Vinicius Oliveira?
MMA Fighting previews Saturday’s UFC Vegas 113 card, and the biggest storylines of the weekend.
On Saturday, UFC Vegas 113 goes down in the fight capital of the world, headlined by a Top-15 bantamweight matchup between Mario Bautista and Vinicius Oliveira. It’s a bit of a comedown for the UFC after kicking off 2026 with back-to-back numbered events, but can Bautista and Lok Dog give the fans the excitement that was missing from last weekend’s event?
MMA Fighting’s Jed Meshew and Alexander K. Lee preview UFC Vegas 113 and what’s at stake between Bautista and Oliveira. Additionally, Meshew and Lee discuss the significance of the co-main event between Kyoji Horiguchi and Amir Albazi, the numerous weight misses for undercard bouts, what fights are likely to steal the show on Saturday, PFL Dubai, BKFC’s Knucklemania, and more.
