Daniel Santos Beats Bolaji Oki and Honors Allan Nascimento
Daniel Santos defeated Bolaji Oki by unanimous decision at UFC 333 on October 24, 2026. All three judges scored their featherweight bout 29–28 for Santos at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi. UFC’s official result lists the same scorecards.
The fight went the full three rounds. UFC described it as a close contest, with Santos offering more volume and Oki landing some of the heavier shots. Neither fighter scored a finish, so the judges decided the outcome after 15 minutes.
After the announcement, Santos dedicated the win to his teammate Allan Nascimento, who had recently died. The UFC recap noted that the Chute Boxe Diego Lima team was still mourning Nascimento. That tribute became a central part of Santos’ post-fight interview and explains the headline’s focus on his teammate.
The result was a unanimous decision, not a stoppage. Santos earned the win on each card by a single point, while Oki left with a close decision loss. The official scorecards identify the bout as a featherweight contest and provide the 29–28 totals for all three judges. That distinction corrects the earlier bantamweight label and makes the outcome clear for readers looking up the UFC 333 results. The final decision and tribute were both confirmed in the post-fight coverage.
