Our first Collection Challenge of the year is centered around two incredible ranked flyweight athletes as they battle it out this weekend in Vegas at UFC Fight Night: Ankalaev vs Walker 2. 

Matheus Nicolau and Manel Kape are both dynamic flyweights in the world of martial arts and this will be their first rematch since UFC Fight Night: Edwards vs Muhammad back in March of 2021, in which Nicolau won by decision. 

Depending on who wins this fight, it will determine our Series 2 moment reward for this week’s Collection Challenge. 

If Nicolau wins again, the reward will be his KO moment vs Matt Schnell at UFC Fight Night: Thompson vs Holland. Known as one of the best counter strikers in the division, Nicolau landed a heavy overhand right to drop Matt Schnell to the canvas, cementing himself as a top-10 flyweight contender with his 4th consecutive victory.

If Kape wins, our moment for this week will be his unbelievable flying knee KO vs Ode Osbourne from UFC 265. After 2 losses to start his UFC career, Manel Kape exploded into a flying knee with only 15 seconds left in the 1st round, finishing Ode Osborne in style to etch his name in the UFC win column. 

Either way, it’s sure to be a fight you don’t want to miss. This Collection Challenge will end on January 16th at 11AM PT.
