Lerone Murphy headlines in London for the first time in his career, taking on undefeated contender Movsar Evloev in a fight that could determine the next featherweight title challenger. Murphy enters with a professional record of 17-0-1, extending his unbeaten run with a series of strong performances over the past two years. The 34-year-old's lone draw came back in 2019, and eight of his victories have been by knockout.

The Manchester fighter was last seen delivering a statement win at UFC 319, stopping Aaron Pico with a devastating first-round spinning elbow, a finish that significantly raised his profile in the division and earned him the Performance of the Night award. His recent victories over the likes of Josh Emmett and Dan Ige have also shown his ability to go the distance at a high level, combining controlled striking with improved composure in five-round fights.

Evloev, meanwhile, arrives with a perfect 19-0 record and has quietly established himself as one of the most consistent contenders at 145 lbs. The Russian has built his reputation on relentless pressure and a grappling-heavy style, using control and positional dominance to dictate fights over three and five rounds. Wins over Diego Lopes, Arnold Allen and Aljamain Sterling have underlined his credentials, even if finishes have been harder to come by.

In the outright betting, Evloev is the favourite at 2/5, with Murphy priced as the underdog on home soil at 2/1. Evloev’s last nine fights have all gone to the scorecards, and his control-based approach makes another decision likely here. Against a durable opponent in Murphy, the Russian looks well placed to manage the fight over five rounds and edge it on points.

Lerone Murphy vs Movsar Evloev prediction: Evloev to win by decision

Luke Riley vs Michael Aswell

Luke Riley continues his rise in front of a home crowd and will look to maintain his unbeaten record against American fighter Michael Aswell. The Liverpudlian has impressed with his composure and finishing instincts so far, and this feels like another step up in competition against a durable opponent. Another strong performance here would keep Riley on track as one of the UK’s more promising prospects.

Michael Page vs Sam Patterson

Michael 'Venom' Page returns in one of the standout matchups on the card, with the former Bellator star now looking to build momentum in the UFC. His unorthodox striking and movement contrast with Sam Patterson’s more direct and physical approach, making this a tricky fight to call. Page’s experience in big fights could be key if he’s able to control the distance and dictate the tempo.

Roman Dolidze vs Christian Leroy Duncan

This fight carries real significance in the middleweight division, with Christian Leroy Duncan looking to break into the rankings on home soil. Roman Dolidze has already faced top-level opposition and offers a physical, well-rounded test, so a win for Duncan would represent a clear step towards contender status. It’s a strong indicator of whether the Brit is ready to move into that next tier.

Nathaniel Wood vs Losene Keita

Nathaniel Wood is always one to watch in London, with his high-output striking style and ability to push the pace making him a natural crowd favourite. The former bantamweight has looked revitalised since moving up a division, and his performances in front of a home audience have consistently delivered. Against Losene Keita, who brings power and aggression, this has all the makings of a fast-paced and entertaining fight.
