In addition to the dominant performance in the main event, two knockouts stole the show on UFC 319.
Carlos Prates bounced back in the win column by stopping Geoff Neal in style with a walk-off spinning elbow on the main map.
After seeing a potential knockout of the annual candidate, the fans in Chicago were treated to another in the next fight.
Lerone Murphy apparently caused a shot at Alexander Volkanovski by producing the second rotating elbow finish of the night in the CO-Main event.
With prates that is quickly looking for a fight on the upcoming Brazilian map, a teammate who also won on spectacular fashion can also be in the Octagon instead of later a step back in the Octagon.

Michal Oleksiejczuk claims that the UFC has offered him a quick change to fight in UFC Paris
At UFC 319, Michal Oleksiejczuk earned his second consecutive first round by stopping Gerald Meerschaert.
The Polish hunter absorbed only three strikes in his second outing of 2025 before he brought away his opponent with some large soil and pound shots.
After a three-fight loss streak, Oleksiejczuk was able to turn things around after he had connected the Fighting Nerds team in Brazil.
After his fight without causing any damage, it seems that his third fight of the year may not be that far away.
Oleksiejczuk wrote on X that the UFC has already come to him with a fighting offer for the coming return of the promotion to France on September 6.
He did not give too many details, but the small explanation he has given suggests that it is something big.
“UFC offers me a fight in Paris. It's a bit scary.”
UFC Proponuje Mi Walkę W Paryżu. 🤣 to make trochę przażające. Xd

Michal Oleksiejczuk already threw a potential opponent and a rapid change
Speaking after his knockout victory over UFC 319, Michal Oleksiejczuk called a middleweight that he will meet next time.
Despite the suffering of three consecutive losses, former title -seconder Marvin Vettori is still arranged in the top 15 of 185 pounds.
Oleksiejczuk specifically mentioned the fact that this would be an all-European collision, so that the following month would be a reasonable addition to the Paris card.
“I want a fight with Marvin Vettori. I think this is a very good fight because Marvin comes from Europe, I come from Europe, Poles and I am ready and I think many people want this fight.”
When Oleksiejczuk was asked what his time frame would be for that potential fight, he suggested that he would be ready to go in the near future.
'I don't know if [the] UFC will call me. I am ready for a week, two weeks, no problem. Let's go. “
