Photo: Sexto Round / CC BY 3.0UFC Fight Night: Cortes Acosta vs Walker puts 14 fights on at the Meta Apex in Las Vegas on Saturday, November 7. There is no title on the line and no pay-per-view, and the main event is not the one this card was built around. Until October 30 it was Bonfim vs Brady, a five-round welterweight fight. That bout came off, and a five-round heavyweight fight between Waldo Cortes Acosta and Johnny Walker moved into the top spot eight days out.
No. 6 Waldo Cortes Acosta (17-4) in the heavyweight rankings faces the unranked Johnny Walker (23-10). Cortes Acosta put together three straight knockouts, of Ante Delija and Shamil Gaziev in November 2025 and Derrick Lewis at UFC 324 in January, then dropped decisions to Alexander Volkov at UFC 328 in May and to Curtis Blaydes on September 12, so this is his second fight in eight weeks. Walker had been fighting at light heavyweight until October 3, when he knocked out Mick Parkin in the first round of his heavyweight debut at UFC 332. He is back five weeks later. Before the move he lost a split decision to Dominick Reyes at UFC 327 in April.
The co-main is the bigger fight on paper. No. 2 Tatiana Suarez (12-1) meets No. 3 Virna Jandiroba (23-4) in the strawweight rankings, and both also sit in the women's pound-for-pound top 10. Both lost their last title fight over five rounds, Suarez to Zhang Weili at UFC 312 in February 2025 and Jandiroba to Mackenzie Dern at UFC 321 in October 2025. Suarez has won twice since, a decision over Amanda Lemos and a second-round submission of Loopy Godinez in April; Jandiroba beat Tabatha Ricci on the cards in April.

- Main card: 8:00 p.m. ET (5:00 p.m. PT, 1:00 a.m. GMT and 2:00 a.m. CET on Sunday)

The headliner was not the only late change. Kondratavicius was booked against Wes Schultz until October 23, and Petroski took the spot the next day after his bout moved off the October 31 card. Kondratavicius (9-1) won his Contender Series fight in September 2025 and his UFC debut over Antonio Trocoli in March; Petroski (13-6) has lost three straight, the last two by knockout. Raposo vs Degli was added on October 27, and on October 30, the day the main event changed, Thomas Petersen replaced Alvin Hines opposite Gabriel Lorenço. The full timeline is on the event page.
The prelims have their own reasons to tune in early. Murtazali Magomedov is 11-0 and meets Jose Delano (17-3), and Elijah Smith (10-1) is 3-0 in the UFC since winning his Contender Series bout in September 2024. The prelims also carry a ranked pairing, No. 11 Karine Silva against No. 14 Gabriella Fernandes at women's flyweight.
