Triller Triad Combat held its inaugural event on Nov. 27. In the main event, Pulev authored a standing KO of another former UFC heavyweight king, Frank Mir, 1:59 into the first-round of their bout. Pulev owns a 28-2 professional boxing record, with his only two losses coming against Anthony Joshua and Wladimir Klitschko.
Dos Santos hasn’t competed since December 2020, when he suffered a second-round TKO loss to Ciryl Gane at UFC 256. The 37-year-old Brazilian lost his last four bouts within the Las Vegas-based promotion prior to his release.
