UFC 326 appears to be gaining another big addition.
The first two UFC events of 2026 have already set the tone for what could be a massive year, and the third major card under the Paramount era is shaping up nicely.
This one will take place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on March 7, with Max Holloway facing Charles Oliveira again. The fight is not just a rematch but will also have the BMF title on the line.
Brian Ortega, Cody Garbrandt, and Reinier de Ridder are already confirmed to be on this card. Now it looks like another notable name is joining them, set to take on the UFC’s youngest-ever signing.
Rob Font likely to put his bantamweight ranking on the line against Raul Rosas Jr. at UFC 326
Rob Font, the No. 12-ranked bantamweight, is expected to be back in action at UFC 326, with MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck reporting that the 38-year-old is close to a bout against Raul Rosas Jr.
Font had turned things around after a tough stretch where he lost four out of five fights, but his two-fight winning streak ended with a defeat to David Martinez.
To get back on track and avoid another losing run, Font will need to hold off Rosas Jr. (11-1), who has won five of his six fights since joining the UFC as their youngest-ever signee over four years ago.
The 21-year-old recently picked up a decision win over Vince Morales in March but has been sidelined by injury since then.
Rosas Jr. and Font were originally scheduled to meet at Noche UFC in September last year, but an injury in training forced Rosas Jr. to withdraw.
If this fight is finalized, it would become the eleventh bout confirmed for UFC 326.
UFC 326 lost a top name before the Font vs Rosas Jr. news came out
Font vs Rosas Jr. is expected to be added to the March 7 card, just as the event lost one of its bigger names.
Paulo Costa pulled out of UFC 326 after suffering an injury. The former middleweight title challenger was supposed to take on his fellow countryman, Brunno Ferreira.
‘Borrachinha’ has not fought since July 2025 when he picked up a win over Roman Kopylov, on the undercard of Holloway’s last fight. That win broke a three-year drought without a victory, his previous one coming against Luke Rockhold in 2022.
The reaction from fans was harsh. Some even went as far as calling for Costa’s release from the promotion.
