Finished late in strange fight
Jubli lost to Mike Breeden via KO (punches) at 3:00 of Round 3 at UFC 294 on Saturday in Abu Dhabi.
ANALYSIS
It's exceedingly rare in this sport you see a fighter lose because they break from a mental standpoint, but that's exactly what happened to Jubli here. Unquestionably up two rounds and cruising to a decision victory, Jubli appeared totally baffled in Round 3 after Breeden decided to not only stand in front of him and start screaming, but also start barking at him. Jubli ended up in a trance-like state, eventually being knocked out. While the loss hurts, it's also important to remember Jubli has all of eight professional fights under his belt, and that Breeden missed weight by 3.5 pounds Friday morning. That said, he'll have to learn from this performance.

Fight stays in tact
Jubli's scheduled lightweight fight against Mike Breeden will proceed as planned despite Breeden missing weight by 3.5 pounds Friday morning, Chatmatkar Sandhu of TNT Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Earlier reports suggested that Breeden was still awaiting medical clearance, but the two participated in the ceremonial weigh-ins later in the day, so it appears as if everything is good to go. Jubli will presumably obtain an undisclosed percentage of Breeden's purse in exchange for allowing the fight to proceed, and remains approximately a (-270) betting favorite as of Friday afternoon.

Opponent misses weight
Jubli's scheduled lightweight opponent, Mike Breeden, weighed in at 159.5 pounds, 3.5 pounds above the lightweight limit for a non-title fight, for Saturday's preliminary matchup at UFC 294.
ANALYSIS
According to MMA Orbit, Jubli has already accepted the fight against the heavy opponent, but it still remains to be seen if Breeden will be medically cleared to compete Saturday. Jubli was already going into this fight as approximately a (-270) betting favorite, as he looks to improve upon a spotless 7-0 professional MMA record. One of the few India-born fighters in the UFC, Jubli already has some momentum after winning his debut last February against Jeka Saragih -- a second-round stoppage that earned him a Performance of the Night bonus.

Looks to stay undefeated
Jubli will take on Mike Breeden in a lightweight matchup at UFC 294 on October 21, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Jubli has already had a strong start to his UFC run, as the undefeated 28-year-old defeated Jeka Saragih via second-round finish in February and took home a post-fight bonus as a result. He'll now look to stay undefeated against Breeden, a fighter who is winless in the UFC despite three appearances. This has the makings of the UFC looking to pad the record of a young prospect with an opponent likely on his way out, but it's not always that easy at the highest level of the sport.
