Gianni Vazquez steps in on short notice at UFC Vegas 120 on Saturday, Aug. 8, 2026, replacing Jessie Rosas against Miles Johns. The bout is contested at featherweight.
Vazquez is 0-1 in the UFC. He debuted Feb. 7, 2026, and lost a unanimous decision to Javid Basharat over three rounds. A unanimous decision means all three judges scored it for Basharat. Saturday will be his second appearance in the promotion.
The debut went the full three rounds, so his UFC file carries no finish in it, in either direction.
That file is one fight long. It is not much to read from.
The facts, plainly — vitals and record from public UFC statistics; nickname, nationality, hometown and camp from the public fighter register. A field we can't source stays “pending”; it never shows a fake value.
