Uncrowned has UFC Vegas 102 results, live round-by-round updates, start time and highlights for the Jared Cannonier vs. Gregory Rodrigues fight card on Saturday at the UFC APEX in Las Vegas, Nevada. One-time title challenger Cannonier looks to snap a two-fight losing streak when he takes on hard-charging contender Rodrigues in a battle of competing momentums in the night’s main event.

At age 40, Cannonier (17-8) is in dire need of a good performance after going winless in 2024 in contests against the division’s next generation of contenders, Nassourdine Imavov and Caio Borralho. Prior to that, “The Killa Gorilla” rebounded from his 2022 title loss to Israel Adesanya with decision victories over Sean Strickland and Marvin Vettori. Cannonier is 10-8 in total since joining the UFC in 2015.

Rodrigues (16-5) has won three straight bouts and five of his past six in an effort to force his way up the UFC middleweight rankings. The 32-year-old Brazilian, who goes by the affectionate nickname “Robocop,” was perfect in his 2024 campaign, knocking out Brad Tavares and most recently earning a decision over Christian Leroy Duncan this past July. With a win over Cannonier, Rodrigues will likely claim a spot in the UFC’s media-generated top-15 middleweight rankings.

In the co-main event, longtime featherweight contender Calvin Kattar takes on up-and-comer Youssef Zalal in a similar battle of competing momentums as the night’s headliner.

UFC Vegas 102’s start time for the preliminary card is at 4 p.m. ET on ESPN+. The main card begins live at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN+.
