UFC Oklahoma City: Undefeated newcomers finalize Dricus du Plessis vs. Kamaru Usman fight card

UFC Oklahoma City has a late addition to the mix.

This Saturday, the UFC heads to Paycom Center in Oklahoma City with a middleweight main event between former champion Dricus du Plessis and former welterweight champion Kamaru Usman. And on Tuesday, MMA Fighting confirmed that a late addition fight between undefeated prospects takes place on the undercard when Damien Anderson takes on Ezra Elliott in a featherweight contest. Marcel Dorff was first to report the news.

Anderson (5-0) is a 29-year-old fighter out of Texas, with all of his MMA wins coming via stoppage. Anderson spent most of his MMA career in Fury FC, but also has an extensive grappling background, even competing at a UFC Fight Pass Invitational in 2024. Most recently, Anderson submitted Hondo Gutierrez with a kneebar at CFFC 150.

Elliott (7-0) is a 26-year-old prospect hailing from Arizona, where he trains at the MMA Lab. All of Elliott’s career wins have also come by stoppage, including his most recent win over Ashtin Canigla at RUF 68 in May.

Aside from the main event, UFC Oklahoma City also features a middleweight co-main event between Jared Cannonier and Christian Leroy Duncan.
