Tuff-N-Uff welcomes fight fans back to the Pearl Theater inside the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada for the second event of 2026, continuing an action-packed stretch of combat sports in the fight capital of the world. On Friday, March 13, Tuff-N-Uff 152: Garrette vs. Koren will headline with a professional bantamweight championship main event, streaming live on UFC Fight Pass.

The event follows an incredible week of combat sports excitement beginning March 5, featuring UFC BJJ 6, Power Slap 18, and UFC 326 at T-Mobile Arena on the Paramount+ streaming platform, making March one of the most anticipated months of the year for fight fans.

An undefeated bantamweight championship showdown takes center stage as American standout Andrew Garrette (7–0) faces Israel’s rising star Stav Koren (7–0) in a high-stakes main event clash. Garrette enters with a perfect 7–0 professional record across a remarkable 10-year career, showcasing consistency and dominance with all but one victory coming inside the distance, including a first-round finish under the Tuff-N-Uff banner. Across the cage, Koren mirrors that perfection at 7–0, with two finishes to his name and nearly a decade of professional experience sharpening his well-rounded skill set. With both fighters putting their undefeated records and championship aspirations on the line, this matchup promises elite-level competition, technical precision, and the crowning of a true bantamweight king.

A fast-paced flyweight co-main event is set to ignite the crowd as Israel “El Huracán” Galvan (9–3) faces dangerous submission specialist Jose “El Ronin” Sandoval (8–4) in a matchup built for nonstop action. Galvan enters the bout with tremendous momentum, winning eight of his last nine professional fights, including five finishes, and capturing the Cage Fury Fighting Championships flyweight title in 2024—establishing himself as one of the division’s most explosive rising contenders. Standing opposite him is Sandoval, a highly skilled grappler who has earned eight wins in his last thirteen bouts, with six coming by submission, making him a constant threat the moment the fight hits the mat. This clash of dynamic finishing ability and elite submission prowess promises high-level intensity and a true showcase of world-class flyweight talent.

An international clash of rising dominance versus veteran toughness headlines the welterweight feature bout as Armenia’s Spartak Mikayelyan (0–0) takes on Victor “The Red Rooster” Rackliff (5–6) in a matchup loaded with intrigue. Mikayelyan enters riding a remarkable 10-fight win streak since November 2024, capturing the 165-pound IMMAF championship twice by submission and showcasing elite grappling and finishing ability. Standing across from him is Rackliff, a seasoned 20-year professional MMA veteran whose grit and combat experience were recently on display with a victory in bareknuckle boxing. This matchup pits youth, momentum, and submission prowess against battle-tested durability and striking toughness, creating a compelling clash that promises action from start to finish.

Fan-favorite grappling sensation Renato “The Hybrid” Canuto (3–0) makes his highly anticipated return to the Tuff-N-Uff cage, staying active with a quick turnaround following his impressive victory at the promotion’s January event. Remaining undefeated under the Tuff-N-Uff banner, Canuto continues to showcase his elite-level submission skills and world-class grappling pedigree, making him one of the most dangerous and technically gifted competitors on the roster.
