Bellato vs. Craig Set for UFC Vegas 106

The UFC Vegas 106 co-main event features veteran Paul Craig, a former Top 10 light heavyweight contender, against rising Brazilian prospect Rodolfo Bellato. Craig returns to the 205-pound division after a challenging run at middleweight and enters the fight on a three-fight losing streak, fighting to remain relevant in the division. Bellato, unbeaten in the UFC and recently coming off a draw with Jimmy Crute, is known for his striking and strong takedown defense. Craig remains a dangerous submission threat, though he has struggled with takedown accuracy and defense. Both fighters see this bout as pivotal, with Bellato aiming to break into the elite ranks and Craig seeking redemption. The matchup highlights a classic striker-versus-grappler clash.
