Borralho, the Brazilian striker-grappler from the Fighting Nerds, lost a competitive unanimous decision to Nassourdine Imavov at UFC Paris in September 2025. De Ridder, the Dutch submission specialist and former ONE Championship two-division champion, suffered his first UFC loss when Brendan Allen forced him to quit on the stool between rounds four and five at UFC Vancouver in October.
