Withdraws from Noche UFC
Chairez will not fight Alessandro Costa at Noche UFC on Sept. 13, according to Nolan King of MMAJunkie.com.
ANALYSIS
A leg injury caused Chairez's withdrawal from Noche UFC. He wants to move the Costa fight to a later date, preferably mid-October. There is a chance Chairez can compete again in 2025.

Scheduled for Noche UFC
Chairez is scheduled to compete against fellow flyweight Alessandro Costa at Noche UFC in San Antonio on Sept. 13, per Danny Segura of MMA Junkie.
ANALYSIS
Most recently, Chairez defeated C.J. Vergara via face crank. For his next fight, he takes on a competitor making his return after more than one year off because of an untimely shoulder injury. Still, Vergara is a capable adversary, having stopped Kevin Borjas before his injury.

Career-best effort in win
Chairez defeated C.J. Vergara via submission (face crank) at 2:30 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Mexico City.
ANALYSIS
It was by far the best performance we've seen to date from Chairez, and it came in a big spot in his native Mexico, in addition to earning him a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus. Vergara had all sorts of trouble getting out of the starting block, and Edgar to full advantage. He floored the gas pedal and eventually clipped Vergara with a combo that dropped him. He then jumped on top and eventually took the back of his opponent. Chairez's initial rear-naked choke attempt didn't work, but Vergara had no intention of sticking around and tapped to the ensuing face crank. Now 2-2 (1NC) in his first five UFC bouts, Chairez's roster spot should be secure for a while following this strong effort.

Vergara up next
Chairez will fight C.J. Vergara at UFC Mexico on March 29, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Chairez struggled with consistency during his latest loss to Joshua Van in September, but he'll have a decent chance to bounce back against Vergara, who has lost each of his last two fights.
