Payton Talbott targeted to fight former UFC champion at UFC 332

A bantamweight showdown between former UFC flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo and rising prospect Payton Talbott is targeted for the UFC 332 card on Oct. 3 in Salt Lake City.

MMA Fighting has confirmed following a report from Leo Guimaraes. Both sides have agreed to the match but contracts have yet to be signed. The promotion has yet to announce the headlining attraction for UFC 332, which takes place at the Delta Center.

Figueiredo (25-7-1) has his back against the wall in the UFC after losing his past two in the octagon against Umar Nurmagomedov and Song Yadong. Figueiredo's sole win over his last five bouts was a split decision against Montel Jackson, which was preceded by defeats to Petr Yan and Cory Sandhagen.

Talbott (11-1) enters UFC 332 looking for his third victory in a row after topping Felipe Lima and former two-division champion Henry Cejudo in decisions in 2025, rebounding from the first loss of his career to Raoni Barcelos earlier that year. The former A1 Combat champion won five of six so far in the UFC.

16-0 Farid Basharat confirms UFC exit after seven straight wins

16-0 Farid Basharat confirms UFC exit after seven straight wins
Farid
Basharat has addressed his departure from the
Ultimate Fighting Championship in a statement on social
media.

Basharat (16-0) completed his contract with a victory over John Garza
in July and wasn't offered a new deal despite going unbeaten in the
promotion. In his statement, Basharat reflected on his UFC tenure
and questioned the organization's direction.

Farid Basharat says the UFC never offered a new contract after
his unbeaten seven-fight run

Basharat went 7-0 in the UFC after earning a contract on
Dana White's Contender Series, with six of those victories
coming by decision. He confirmed his departure on Instagram, saying
he competed under unfavorable circumstances and never declined a
fight.

“The news is confirmed, I am no longer with the UFC,†Basharat
wrote on Instagram. “I've had an incredibly successful time in the
organization. I'm proud and happy with what I've accomplished
inside the Octagon. I leave with a stainless record. Holding the
longest active win streak in my weight division and the fourth
longest in the entire UFC. I feel I'm the best bantamweight in the
world. I always turned up and fought regardless of injuries and
weight deficits. And I always asked for the toughest opponent to
get me closer to the title.â€

While grateful for his time with the promotion and its staff,
Basharat questioned the UFC's direction and said he had not
received a contract offer since his last bout.

“But my departure clearly has nothing to do with my fighting
capabilities,†Basharat added. “Unfortunately, the organization
just isn't what it used to be. They're heading in a different
direction from what we all grew up loving. I want to clarify that
since my last fight, I was never offered a contract or an opponent;
I waited, but it never came. I've certainly never declined a fight
during my whole tenure.â€
