It’s an MMA double header this weekend.

This Saturday, the UFC returns to the O2 Arena for another edition of UFC London, this time headlined by a possible featherweight title eliminator between undefeated contenders Movsar Evloev and Lerone Murphy. It’s possibly the best fight the UFC has put together so far in 2026, and the stakes are high, with the winner being in prime position to challenge Alexander Volkanovski for the 145 title. But before that, we’ve got 13 other UFC fights, and PFL Madrid on Friday, and No Bets Barred is here to break it all down.

This week, Jed Meshew flies solo to dive into this big MMA weekend. Topics discussed include a big breakdown for Evloev vs. Murphy, why Michael “Venom” Page is back at welterweight against Sam Patterson, a couple of live dogs on the undercard, the best action on Friday at PFL Madrid, the latest step in The Climb, and more.

Tune in for episode 151 of No Bets Barred.

Saturday, Emmett and Vallejos square off in the main event of UFC Vegas 114, the UFC’s return to the APEX following UFC 326. It’s Emmett’s first fight since losing to Youssef Zalal at UFC 320, and it presents a crossroads moment for the longtime veteran’s career. With a win, Emmett is back in the mix at 145 pounds, a loss marks five defeats in six outings, and could mark the end of the 41-year-olds UFC tenure. Vallejos, meanwhile, is the new prospect to watch at 145 and poised to make a meteoric rise up the rankings if he can beat Emmett.

Ahead of UFC Vegas 114, MMA Fighting’s Alexander K. Lee and Jed Meshew preview Saturday’s event and discuss if this is the last ride for Emmett in the UFC. Additionally, Lee and Meshew discuss the co-main event bout between Gillian Robertson and Amanda Lemos, the other fights to watch on the undercard, react to the UFC White House fights and other recent fight announcements, answer fan questions, and more.
