More Fantasy News
Rebecki up next
Ferreira is scheduled to compete against Mateusz Rebecki in a lightweight fight at UFC St. Louis on May 11, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
Ferreira got back to winning ways by knocking out Michael Johnson back in May 2023. While the 39-year-old faces a great challenge to elevate himself in the lightweight division, he takes on a motivated Rebecki 19-1 in MMA action and eager to fight after seeing his previously scheduled bout with Joel Alvarez canceled.

First win since January 2020
Ferreira defeated Michael Johnson via KO (punch) at 1:50 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
The loser of three in a row and without a victory dating back to January 2020 (Anthony Pettis), there's a real argument to be made no fighter on the entire card needed a victory as badly as Ferreira. He responded in a major way. Of course, getting there was a struggle. Diego appeared to have nothing going prior to the finish. Johnson was easily the faster man on the feet, and Ferreira isn't exactly known as a power puncher, so few could have seen the finish materialize in this matter. Diego could care less, as long as he emerged victorious. The win likely saved Ferreira's roster spot, but at 38 years of age, his margin for error remains quite small. The exciting finish would also go on to earn him a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus.

ANALYSIS
Ferreira has not been in the Octagon since December of 2021 when he lost by TKO to Mateusz Gamrot. He has lost three straight following a strong six fight win streak. Ferreira really needs to get back on track in May.

Added to UFC 277 card in July
Ferreira is in line to take on Drakkar Klose on the UFC 277 card scheduled for July 30, MMA reporter Ariel Helwani reports.
ANALYSIS
Ferreira has been sliding a bit downhill of late, losing three consecutive fights following six straight wins. Ferreira's last two losses have come to a conclusion via KO/TKO, while Drakkar Klose is coming off of his first UFC win via KO/TKO (punches) against Brandon Jenkins. Ferreira does hold a four-inch reach advantage over his opponent, so he may aim to keep Klose at a distance.
