Lucas Fernando and Billy Elekana have agreed to meet in a 205-pound fight on the upcoming UFC Vegas 124 card at the Meta APEX on Nov. 7, multiple people with knowledge of the booking told MMA Fighting.
The Fight Night event will be headlined by welterweight title hopefuls Gabriel Bonfim and Sean Brady in a five-round showdown.
Fernando (14-3) impressed in his octagon debut with a dominating performance against Rafael Tobias this past August, scoring a knockout in the third round. The former LFA champion is now riding a five-fight winning streak with three knockout stoppages.
Elekana (10-2) won three straight in the UFC after dropping his promotional debut to Bogdan Guskov in 2025. The PFL and LFA veteran scored a decision over Ibo Aslan before finishing Kevin Christian and Junior Tafa with rear-naked chokes.
