Welterweight contenders Gilbert Burns and Mike Malott headline UFC Fight Night this Saturday at the Meta APEX in Las Vegas. Burns, a former welterweight title challenger, enters the bout on a concerning four-fight losing streak. His recent record stands at 3-5 since his 2021 title bid against Kamaru Usman, though his opponents have consistently been elite.
Conversely, Mike Malott is on an upward trajectory with a three-fight win streak. His most significant victory to date was a decision win over Kevin Holland in his last outing. A victory over Burns would undoubtedly be the biggest achievement of his career, potentially propelling him into the upper echelons of the welterweight division.
