Josh Emmett VS Kevin Vallejos

The main event featured a classic experience versus youth matchup, but the 24-year-old Kevin Vallejos made quick work of the veteran. Vallejos looked incredibly sharp from the opening bell, stalking Emmett from the center of the cage and utilizing exquisite timing to intercept Emmett's looping power shots. Just past the midway point of the first round, Vallejos caught Emmett biting down and floored him with a devastating right hook. Sensing the finish, Vallejos ruthlessly swarmed a bloody and defiant Emmett with a relentless avalanche of punches, knees, and elbows, forcing the referee to step in and call a stop to the action at the 3:33 mark of Round 1.

This classic 'veteran vs. prospect' matchup sees perennial featherweight powerhouse Josh Emmett defending his ranking against 24-year-old rising Argentine star Kevin 'El Chino' Vallejos. Fresh off a spectacular December 2025 spinning backfist KO over Giga Chikadze, Vallejos is riding a massive wave of momentum into his first main event. Emmett, known for earth-shattering power, presents the ultimate litmus test for Vallejos's chin and defensive responsibility.
