UFC Vegas 109, the promotion’s latest return to the promotion’s APEX facility, is set to go down tomorrow night (Sat., Aug. 9, 2025) in Las Vegas, Nevada. It’s not the most high-profile card of all time, but this morning’s official weigh-ins helped add to the intrigue with a trio of athletes missing weight on their first attempt. Fortunately, all of the athletes were able to hit the mark on subsequent trips to the scales.
In the main event, rising Middleweight wrestler Anthony Hernandez faces off with mauling veteran Roman Dolidze. “Fluffy” rides a seven-fight win streak into his first main event slot, and his combination of pressure, boxing, and cage wrestling has proven a difficult question to answer. Dolidze, conversely, is the more established contender and brings a potent mix of jiu-jitsu and power punching to the cage.
In the co-main event, former Flyweight title challenger Steve Erceg looks to stop the bleeding opposite short-notice replacement Ode Osbourne. Though the Australian is undeniably talented, he’s now lost three straight fights and is in desperate need of a victory to remain a relevant player at 125-pounds. Elsewhere on the card, there are known action fighters like Andre Fili, Eryk Anders, and Jean Matsumoto should help guarantee an entertaining night of action.
Check out the final faceoffs below and let us know who has the upper hand tomorrow!
