Menifield is coming off an 0-2 campaign in 2020 in which he dropped a unanimous decision to Devin Clark at UFC 250 and suffered a second-round KO defeat to Ovince St. Preux at UFC Fight Night 176 on Sept. 5. The Contender Series alum was unbeaten in his first nine professional outings, including KO/TKO victories over Vinicius Moreira Castro and Paul Craig in the Octagon.
After a pair of triumphs on the Contender Series, Knight was successful in his promotional debut, as he earned a unanimous decision over Aleksa Camur at UFC 253 on Sept. 26. The 32-year-old Thornton Martial Arts member has lost just once in 10 pro appearances — a first-round TKO defeat to fellow UFC talent Tafon Nchukwi at Cage Fury Fighting Championships 80 in November 2019.
