Snaps brief losing streak Krylov defeated Modestas Bukauskas via KO (punches) at 4:57 of Round 3 at UFC 324 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
Impact Krylov entered having suffered back-to-back first-round defeats and could have conceivably fighting for his job here. He by no means dominated Bukauskas, but he was on his way to a guaranteed decision victory had the late stoppage not emerged. Bukauskas didn't land many clean power shots, but Krylov's chin held up when challenged, which was by far the biggest concern entering the evening. The finish came when Krylov landed a left jab followed by a right hook. The Ukrainian will be 34 years old in March and has been wildly inconsistent throughout two stints with the company, so it's imperative Krylov put forth another strong effort his next time out.
JANUARY 25 • ROTOWIRE
Bukauskas up next Krylov will fight Modestas Bukauskas at UFC 324 on Jan. 24, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
Impact Krylov lost both of his fights in 2025, and he'll be attempting to avoid falling into a three-fight losing streak in January. That may be easier said than done, however, as his opponent has won each of his last four bouts.

Durability issues remain Krylov lost to Bogdan Guskov via KO (punches) at 4:18 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Abu Dhabi.
Impact Now 33 years of age and with north of 40 fights on his professional resume, Krylov can't be putting forth performances such as this one as a -195 favorite. He and Guskov fought to even terms of the feet for about four minutes, at which point Krylov ate a huge right hand and crumbled on the spot. He tried to recover, but was done for good after a handful of follow-up shots. Nikita returned in April after more than two years on the sidelines and was knocked out by Dominick Reyes in just over two minutes. If these durability issues are here to stay, Krylov has zero chance of making an impact moving forward, even in a thin light heavyweight division.
JULY 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Guskov up next Krylov is scheduled to compete against Bodgan Guskov in a light heavyweight fight at UFC Abu Dhabi on July 26, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
Impact Barely a month after Krylov suffered a knockout at the hands of Dominick Reyes, the former will try to bounce back quickly by defeating Guskov. Before the Reyes fight, Krylov's last fight and win were in 2023, so he does not have blistering momentum in the eyes of the UFC brass. On the contrary, Guskov is fighting off three consecutive stoppage wins.

Finished in return from long layoff Krylov lost to Dominick Reyes via KO (punches) at 2:24 of Round 1 at UFC 314 on Saturday in Miami.
Impact It was the first fight from Krylov in more than two years and it's fair to wonder if all the time away had any impact on his performance. He was scheduled for a fight last November, but either way he was looking at an extended run on the sidelines. Krylov entered the evening with one knockout defeat in 39 previous pro bouts, so he definitely doesn't have durability issues. That said, he was wobbled by Reyes early on before being crushed with a left hand which turned his lights out in an instant. Nikita entered the night on a three-fight winning streak and he's still just 33 years old, far from ancient at 205 pounds, so there should be some gas left in the tank if he is able to compete a bit more frequently.
