UFC Fight Night 100 takes place Nov. 19 at Ibirapuera Gymnasium in Sao Paulo. It airs on FS1 following early prelims on UFC Fight Pass, though the event’s bout order hasn’t been finalized.

Jotko (18-1 MMA, 5-1 UFC) brings a four-fight winning streak to the cage, including an impressive June knockout of Tamdan McCrory that took just 59 seconds. He now meets Leites (26-6 MMA, 11-5 UFC), who currently sits at No. 13 in the latest USA TODAY Sports/MMAjunkie MMA middleweight rankings after picking up an August win over Chris Camozzi via submission.

“Godzilla” Colombo (8-1-1 MMA, 0-0-1 UFC) made his promotional debut earlier this month, finding to a majority draw with Jarjis Danho is a slow-paced affair. He now meets “KLB” Henrique (9-2 MMA, 1-1 UFC), who suffered a knockout loss in his UFC debut against Francis Ngannou but picked up a submission win against Dmitry Smoliakov at July’s UFC on FOX 20.

Brazilian Eduardo (27-10 MMA, 2-2 UFC) has an impressive career record but has struggled to remain active in the UFC, never notching more than one octagon appearance in a calendar year. He now faces Gamburyan (15-9 MMA, 6-7 UFC), who looks to rebound from a disappointing April loss to John Dodson.

Antigulov (18-4 MMA, 0-0 UFC) makes his UFC debut on the strength of an impressive 12-fight winning streak. He faces Rogerio de Lima (14-3 MMA, 3-1 UFC) who has fallen short just once in his four UFC appearances to date.

Nicolau (12-1-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC) carries a five-fight winning streak to the cage, including UFC wins over John Moraga and Bruno Korea. He now meets Sasaki (19-3-2 MMA, 2-2 UFC), who recently snapped a two-fight losing streak with a May submission win over Willie Gates.

Graves (6-0-1 MMA, 2-0-1 UFC) recently suffered the first blemish of his career, settling for a majority draw against Bojan Velickovic at UFC 201. He faces submission ace Moraes (10-2-1 MMA, 4-1-1 UFC), who also fought to a draw in his most recent appearance at UFC 198 against Luan Chagas.

UFC Fight Night 100 marks the UFC’s fifth incursion to the city of Sao Paulo, including the promotion’s inaugural outing on Brazilian soil in 1998.
