Records: Cannonier (17-6-0) | Imavov (13-4-0)
The 40-year-old Cannonier isn’t going quietly out to pasture. Since losing via unanimous decision to Israel Adesanya for the title at UFC 276, he stopped Sean Strickland via split-decision in a mid-December main event, and he posted a unanimous-decision win over Marvin Vettori in another main event in mid-June. If “The Killa Gorilla” can get the win here, he might position himself for one final title shot before he rides off into the sunset.
