UFC Fight Night: Gamrot vs. Salkilld (also known as UFC Fight Night 284 and UFC Vegas 120) was a mixed martial arts event produced by the Ultimate Fighting Championship that took place on August 8, 2026, at the Meta Apex in Enterprise, Nevada, part of the Las Vegas Valley, United States.[2]
Background
[edit source]For the event, the Apex debuted a significant renovation that expanded the facility's seating capacity.[3]
A lightweight bout between former KSW Featherweight and Lightweight Champion Mateusz Gamrot and Quillan Salkilld headlined the event.[2]
A women's strawweight bout between former UFC Women's Strawweight Championship challenger Amanda Lemos and Denise Gomes was scheduled for the event.[4] However, for undisclosed reasons, Gomes had to withdraw and was replaced by Alexia Thainara.[5]
A middleweight bout between Eric McConico and undefeated prospect Donte Johnson was scheduled for the event.[2] However, for undisclosed reasons, the bout was shifted to one week later at UFC 330.[6]
A featherweight bout between Miles Johns and promotional newcomer Jessie Rosas was scheduled for the event.[7] However, Rosas was removed from the bout just hours before weigh-ins after a UFC doctor did not clear him to compete due to a wound on his forehead, and he was replaced by Gianni Vázquez, rejoining the promotion after being released earlier in the year.[8][9]
