Fighting Holobaugh
Ogden will fight Kurt Holobaugh at UFC Vegas 88 on March 23, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Ogden remains at 1-2 in the UFC following a no-contest with Nikolas Motta in November. Still in search of his first win since September 2022, Ogden will get another chance against Holobaugh, who was victorious in his return to the UFC but still holds a 1-4 record in the promotion.

Referee error removes victory
Ogden and Nikolas Motta fought to a no-contest (premature referee stoppage) at 3:11 of Round 3 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
To say this is a bad break for Ogden would be the understatement of the century. Fresh off an awful performance in a unanimous decision loss to Ignacio Bahamondes last April, Ogden dominated Motta from bell-to-bell and was well on his way to either earning a submission victory or unanimous decision win, at which point referee Mike Beltran made an incomprehensibly bad stoppage, which, upon review, turned a sure-fire Ogden win into a no-contest. It's an extremely slippery slope, but there has to be a way to re-start a fight if a referee error such as this one occurs.

Scheduled against Motta
Ogden will compete against Nikolas Motta in a lightweight fight at UFC Vegas 82 on Nov. 18, according to Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
Ogden will try to redeem himself after suffering a loss at the hands of Ignacio Bahamondes at UFC 287. That fight only happened because Motta, 13-5 MMA and 1-2 UFC, withdrew from said fight in the first place.

Struggles in UFC 287 defeat
Ogden lost to Ignacio Bahamondes via unanimous decision (27-30, 27-30, 28-29) at UFC 287 on Saturday in Miami.
ANALYSIS
Stepping in for Nikolas Motta (undisclosed) on short notice, Ogden never had a chance in what was a 15-minute kickboxing match. He appeared baffled by the length of his opponent, and that led to him constantly getting off second in all the striking exchanges between the two men. Odgen landed some powerful shots when he fully committed to engaging, but the overwhelming volume edge in Bahamondes' favor made this a lopsided result. The 33-year-old Kansas City native has now alternated losses and wins in his first three UFC bouts.
