Two different routes to victory
Kopylov’s finish arrived with only one second left in the scheduled fifteen-minute contest. The high kick sent Curtis down late in a fight that had nearly reached the judges. The official result remains a technical knockout, so it should be distinguished from a decision even though almost the full three rounds had elapsed.
Moisés and Ogden did complete their three-round matchup. The win ended Ogden’s two-fight winning streak and gave Moisés a return to winning form. For the exact scoring, the Nevada State Athletic Commission’s event record lists the final verdict; the UFC’s recap describes the bout’s place on the preliminary card.
These outcomes supply the conclusion to the original additions announcement. One matchup produced a finish at the last possible moment, while the other required a unanimous decision. Together with Dern’s submission in the headliner, they show how the announced lineup developed into the completed first UFC event of 2025.
