Don'Tale Mayes

• Nationality: United States
• Height: 198 cm
• Weight: 119.7 kg
• Total Fights: 16
• Record: 10 / 6 / 0

Mayes boasts 10 wins, half of which have come by knockout. His recent unanimous decision loss to Rodrigo Nascimento showed his resilience but indicated struggles against dominant opponents. Given that both his and Machado's last opponents share robust records, Mayes might find an edge due to his more aggressive striking skills.

Caio Machado

• Nationality: Canada
• Height: 190 cm
• Weight: 113.4 kg
• Total Fights: 11
• Record: 8 / 2 / 1

Machado enters with a record of eight wins, noting four by knockout. His latest outing ended in a unanimous decision defeat from Michael Parkin, a steady competitor. Facing Mayes, who has a similar build and forceful style as Parkin, Machado's challenge will be to pierce through Mayes' striking power to claim victory.
