Mateusz Gamrot`s initial fight for 2025 has been scheduled.
The Ultimate Fighting Championship recently announced that Mateusz Gamrot (with a professional record of 24 wins, 3 losses, and 1 No Contest) is slated to compete against Ludovit Klein (who holds a record of 23 wins, 4 losses, and 1 draw) in a significant lightweight contenders` matchup. This fight is confirmed to take place at UFC Vegas 107, which is scheduled for May 31st.
This upcoming bout is notably important for Gamrot, currently ranked among the top lightweight fighters globally. He had indicated anticipation for a fight announcement over the past few months, following discussions potentially involving several other prominent names in the division. Gamrot, a 34-year-old athlete and former two-division champion in KSW, will be looking to bounce back from a split decision defeat to Dan Hooker at UFC 305 last August. That result brought an end to Gamrot`s prior three-fight winning streak. Since joining the UFC roster in 2020, his performance record stands at 7 wins and 3 losses within the promotion.
For Klein, aged 30, this presents a significant opportunity to advance his position substantially in the divisional rankings should he secure a victory over Gamrot. After a challenging start to his UFC journey with a 1-2 record, Klein transitioned from the featherweight division to lightweight. This move has proven successful, as he has compiled an impressive 6-0-1 record and achieved four consecutive victories since changing weight classes. In his most recent appearance in September, Klein earned a unanimous decision win against Roosevelt Roberts.
The UFC Vegas 107 event is anticipated to feature a women`s flyweight encounter between leading contenders Erin Blanchfield and Maycee Barber as its main event.
