After that Anthony struggled to come closer to championship bouts. In last 3 fights, he lost 2 fights against Alexander Rakic via Unanimous Decision. Another one loss to Glover Texiera via KO.

2. Uriah Hall (17-9-0) VS Chris Weidman (15-5-0).
Both fighters looking for a win in UFC261 to become in race of champion. Uriah Hall is looking in a great form, by getting 3 wins in last 3 fights, his boxing and power impressed us all which will create a problem for Chris Weidman. Whereas, former Middleweight champion Chris Weidman looking for comeback in a winning side as won 2 out of 5 fights. This would be his last fight in ufc if he lost to Hall on saturday.
3. Championship Bout 1: Valetina Shevchenko (20-3-0) VS Jessica Andrade (21-8-0).
One of the baddest women fighter on the earth Valetina Shevchenko will face Jessica Andrade for the women flyweight championship belt. The champion has 6 fight win streak, she had faced her last loss against The GOAT Amanda Nunes. It looks interesting that how Jessica will planning against champion as she was very hard puncher but overall Shevchenko is better striker as well as grappler. So overall Valentina is looking fan favourite.
4. Championship Bout 2: Weili Zhang (21-1-0) VS Rose Namajunas (10-4-0).
The Chinese Champion have made her debut against The polish women Joanna Jerdrzejczyk which was one of the best fight in UFC women history. Now, the Chinese woman will face Rose Namajunas in UFC261. As Rose defeated Joanna twice but loss to Jessica Andrade who will face Shevchenko in same event. Its very interesting to see how this two matches in women category goes.
5. Championship Bout 3: Kumaru Usman (18-1-0) VS Jeorge Masvidal 2 (35-14-0).
The most awaiting match event of the UFC261, Kumaru Usman vs Jeorge Masvidal 2. The people want this fight from a long time, in their first match Jeorge Masvidal agree to fight with Kumaru Usman before 2 weeks, because Gilbert burns test corona positive due to which he called off his name from fight which give chance to Masvidal.
But now, both fighters have enough time for preparation, strategy and training camp. Both can work on their weak area and make strategy accordingly. Kumaru Usman is a complete package as he have good striking as well as grappling which will put Masvidal in difficult position same as in first match. Whereas, Masvidal have to focus more on his wrestling. Their is no that Masvidal is one of the best striker in UFC right now. Its interesting to which fighter have a better game plan that will be become UFC welterweight champion.
