King Green is set to face Daniel Zellhuber at UFC Mexico on February 28, 2026, marking Green’s 29th appearance for the promotion, while the event is headlined by a flyweight bout between Brandon Moreno and Asu Almabayev.
King Green is already gearing up for 2026. Exciting times ahead!
The UFC just dropped some news. Green (33-17-1, 1 NC) will face Daniel Zellhuber (15-3) at UFC Mexico on Feb. 28. It’ll be Green’s 29th time stepping into the octagon.
Green’s UFC record? 14-12-1 (1 NC). He recently edged out Lance Gibson Jr. in a split decision, snapping a two-fight losing streak. Before that, he faced a brutal KO by Mauricio Ruffy and a swift submission from Paddy Pimblett. But hey, wins over Gibson, Jim Miller, Grant Dawson, and Tony Ferguson aren’t too shabby!
Now, let’s talk Zellhuber. The Mexican fighter joined the UFC in 2022 via Dana White’s Contender Series. After losing to Trey Ogden, he bounced back with victories over Lando Vannata, Christos Giagos, and Francisco Prado. Yet, his momentum’s been stalled by two recent losses.
Oh, and UFC Mexico? It’s headlined by a flyweight showdown between Brandon Moreno and Asu Almabayev. Mark your calendars for Feb. 28 at Arena CDMX in Mexico City. Can’t wait!
