Perth fight in works
Gamrot has drawn Dan Hooker for a lightweight fight at UFC 305 in Perth, according to Farah Hannoun of MMAJunkie.com.
ANALYSIS
Gamrot will have a golden opportunity to log his fourth consecutive win. Even though Hooker is fighting off a two-game win streak, he recently recovered from an arm fracture and remains ranked much lower than the Polish lightweight. Gamrot's last fight was a third consecutive win, which was over a former champion in Rafael dos Anjos.

Leans on grappling to beat RDA
Gamrot defeated Rafael dos Anjos via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 30-27) at UFC 299 on Saturday in Miami.
ANALYSIS
It was a clear cut decision win for Gamrot, but it still felt like an underwhelming effort given he entered as a -450 favorite, largest on the entire card. Gamrot got blasted on the feet the first couple minutes, but once he got his wrestling game going, RDA was toast. All told, Mateusz landed 11-of-19 takedown attempts, good for 7:01 worth of control time. Gamrot is 7-1 in his past eight fights, with his lone setback during that stretch being a unanimous decision defeat to Beneil Dariush back in October 2022. He's really good, but it's plenty fair to wonder what his backup plan will be in the fights in which those takedowns aren't landing. We haven't seen a ton in the way of secondary offense from him thus far.

Scheduled against former champ
Gamrot is scheduled to face Rafael dos Anjos in a lightweight fight at UFC 299 on March 9 in Miami, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Gamrot was unable to participate in the main event of UFC 294. For his next fight, he will face off against a former UFC Lightweight Champion though. Dos Anjos was champion in the mid-2010s and has continued to be a legitimate threat in multiple divisions since then. Gamrot will look to fend off RDA and improve his winning streak to three.

Backup for title fight
Gamrot will serve as the backup fighter for UFC 294's main event in Abu Dhabi on Oct. 21, MMAJunkie.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Currently, Islam Makhachev is scheduled to defend the UFC Lightweight Championship against Charles Oliveira for UFC 294's main event. But should either be unavailable, Gamrot will receive a shot at gold. He earned the backup opportunity after defeating Rafael Fiziev via TKO (injury) at UFC Vegas 80 on Sept. 23.

Opponent injury leads to win
Gamrot defeated Rafael Fiziev via TKO (injury) at 2:03 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
It will come with an asterisk attached, but it's by far the biggest win of Gamrot's career to date. He dropped the opening round on all three scorecards, although it was a close, competitive frame. Gamrot appeared to finally be making some headway in Round 2 with his grappling game, at which point Fiziev suffered some sort of leg injury after attempting a kick. Regardless, it's a key victory for the 32-year-old native of Poland, as Gamrot improves to 6-1 in his past seven bouts dating back to April 2021.
