UFC Fight Night is set to get going this weekend from the Apex in Las Vegas, Nev. on Sunday, Feb. 5 at 1 a.m. ET. There is a five-bout main card highlighted by a heavyweight fight between Derrick Lewis and Serghei Spivac. Also notable on the main card is a welterweight fight between Yusaku Kinoshita and Adam Fugitt.
Yusaku Kinoshita (6-1) is making his UFC debut in the welterweight division. The 22-year-old southpaw is looking to build on an impressive win in Dana White’s Contender Series over Jose Souza back in August. Kinoshita has great kicking ability and tends to target his opponents legs. He will be looking to display his well-rounded arsenal and gain his first win in the UFC circuit.
Adam Fugitt (8-3) is reeling following a TKO loss at the hands of Michael Morales during his UFC debut at UFC 277. Despite taking the fight on short notice, it was a disappointing showing. Similar to Kinoshita he is also a southpaw that predicates his gameplan around kicks and has an all-around skill set. Fugitt is desperate to get another win on his record.
