Brown, Bonfim Have Enjoyed Recent Success in UFC Competition
The 35-year-old Brown has been victorious in four of his last five Octagon appearances, and his lone defeat during that time — a split-decision setback against Bryan Battle at UFC 310 — came after his opponent missed weight. “Rude Boy” was most recently in action at UFC on ESPN 66, where he scored a second-round knockout of Nicolas Dalby on April 26.
A former competitor on Dana White’s Contender Series, Bonfim has won five of his first six UFC outings thus far. After falling to Dalby via second-round TKO in November 2023, “Marretinha” has reeled off successive victories against Ange Loosa, Kalinn Williams and Stephen Thompson.
