Deiveson Figueiredo vs. Payton Talbott preview
Figueiredo (25-7-1 MMA, 14-7-1 UFC) has hit a rough stretch in his career.

However, he's since gone 1-4, with the lone win coming by split decision over Montel Jackson. To his credit, the losses have been to very stiff competition: Petr Yan, Cory Sandhagen, Umar Nurmagomedov, and Song Yadong.

favorite against Cejudo. Talbott's lone career loss came against Raoni Barcelos in January 2025.
