More Fantasy News
Finds new opponent
Reese will now face Azamat Bekoev in a middleweight bout at UFC 311 on Jan. 18, Nolan King of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Initially, Reese was slated to take on Sedriques Dumas. The latter pulled out just days before the fight, however, leaving the promotion scrambling to find a new fighter. They found one in Bekoev, who is an LFA champ but has never stepped into the octagon for a UFC bout before. Reese, meanwhile, is 2-1 in the promotion and has five inches of both height and reach on Bekoev.

Needs new opponent
Reese needs a new opponent as Sedriques Dumas has withdrawn from their scheduled middleweight bout at UFC 311 on Jan. 18, Octagon Update reports.
ANALYSIS
Reese was looking to push his winning streak to three against Dumas, but he'll need a new opponent on extremely short notice. The promotion is reportedly looking into replacement options, but again, the fight is around the corner. It's unclear why Dumas was forced to back out of the fight, but regardless, Reese needs a new opponent if he wants to fight Saturday.

Dumas up next
Reese is scheduled to compete against Sedriques Dumas in a middleweight fight at UFC 311 on Jan. 18, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
Reese will look to build off the positive momentum he created in 2024 and push it to 2025. He defeated Julian Marquez in 20 seconds on June 8 before cruising to a decision win just under three months later.

Cruises to decision win
Reese defeated Jose Medina via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
This was the first time in Reese's professional career that he saw a second round, let alone went the entire 15 minutes. He predictably started on fire before seeing his energy level and output drop along the way. To Reese's credit, he showed a different wrinkle to his game, landing 4-of-6 takedown attempts in Round 3 alone, good for 3:49 worth of control time. The grappling was nice to see, but Reese is going to make his living as a power puncher and brawler. Now 2-1 in his first three UFC bouts, Reese figures to get a more substantial test his next time out.
