Next fight on tap

ANALYSIS
Quarantillo will come into this bout having won nine of his last 10 fights and most recently defeated Gabriel Benitz via third-round TKO in mid-July. Burgos is in the midst of a two-fight skid for the first time in his career but should make for one of the tougher opponents Quarantillo has faced in his career as he looks to get back in the win column again.

Blows past Gabriel Benitez
Quarantillo defeated Gabriel Benitez via TKO (punches) at 3:40 of Round 3 at UFC on ESPN 26 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Quarantillo rebounded in a major way from his loss to Gavin Tucker last December with his best performance inside the octagon. He jumped Benitez in Round 1 and went on to dictate the pace of the fight for the remainder of the bout. Benitez was a battered and bloody mess by the time it was over and his remarkable toughness was the only reason this fight lasted as long as it did. "Billy Q's" defense needs work, but his UFC run has been a resounding success. The 32-year-old is now sporting 4-1 mark since arriving on the scene back in December 2019.

Win streak snapped at eight
Quarantillo lost to Gavin Tucker via unanimous decision (27-30, 27-30, 27-30) at UFC 256 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
It's the first UFC defeat for the man they call "Billy Q". Despite entering as a pretty significant betting favorite (-185), Quarantillo had all sorts of difficulty with the pressure of Tucker. He constantly found himself on the defensive, and that allowed Tucker to land the cleaner, harder shots throughout the course of the fight. Quarantillo did a pretty nice job just to see the final bell, all things considered. The loss snaps an eight-fight winning streak for Quarantillo and is his first setback since April 2016.
