Scott Smith’s Top Plays for UFC Vegas 118: Muhammad vs Bonfim

The UFC returns to the Meta APEX in Las Vegas for UFC Vegas 118, headlined by a high-stakes welterweight collision between former champion Belal Muhammad and the surging Brazilian contender Gabriel Bonfim. The co-main pairs the resurgent Brendan Allen, fresh off a marquee win over Reiner De Ridder at middleweight, against prospect Edmen Shahbazyan, a fighter whose power-heavy striking record masks a grappling vulnerability that Allen consistently exploits. Elsewhere on the card, featherweight spoiler Fares Ziam tests gritty prospect Tom Nolan at 155 pounds, Bryce Mitchell attempts to revive his career against contender Santiago Luna, and unbeaten Polish heavyweight Iwo Baraniewski collides with explosive finisher Junior Tafa in what could be the night's most violent affair. Let’s take a look at the top spots on this week’s card.
