UFC Vegas 107 will feature Andreas Gustafsson’s debut against Trevin Giles, who steps in on short notice to replace Jeremiah Wells, with the event headlined by a women’s flyweight bout between Erin Blanchfield and Maycee Barber.
UFC Vegas 107 is set to feature the octagon debut of Andreas Gustafsson. Exciting times, right?
In a twist, Trevin Giles, a UFC veteran, steps in on short notice. He’ll face Gustafsson at Saturday’s Fight Night at the UFC APEX in Las Vegas. It’s happening at a catchweight of 180 pounds.
Initially, Gustafsson was supposed to fight Jeremiah Wells. However, Wells was pulled from the contest for reasons that remain a mystery. Drama, anyone?
Now, Giles is eager to break a three-fight losing streak. “The Problem” recently lost a unanimous decision to Mike Malott at UFC Edmonton in November. Before that, he faced back-to-back defeats against Carlos Prates and Gabriel Bonfim. Tough luck, huh?
On the flip side, Gustafsson is riding high on a three-fight win streak. Competing for the first time under the UFC banner, “Bane” secured a contract with a second-round knockout win on week 2 of DWCS this past August. Quite the entrance!
The main event? A crucial women’s flyweight bout between Erin Blanchfield and Maycee Barber. Can’t wait!
