UFC Edmonton is up to eight listed fights for October 17, 2026, with six new matchups filling out the promotion’s return to Rogers Place in Edmonton, Canada.
The card is still built around Joaquin Buckley vs. Mike Malott in the main event and Erin Blanchfield vs. Jasmine Jasudavicius in the co-main event. The Buckley-Malott booking gives Malott a home-country main event against a top-10 welterweight.

Katlyn Cerminara Returns In Edmonton
The most notable new addition is Jamey-Lyn Horth vs. Katlyn Cerminara at women’s flyweight. Cerminara, who competed for years as Katlyn Chookagian, has not fought since her unanimous decision loss to Maycee Barber at UFC 299 on March 9, 2024. That Barber-Cerminara result extended Barber’s winning streak and left Cerminara at 18-6.
Cerminara’s championship history gives the booking more weight than a routine card addition. She challenged Valentina Shevchenko for the UFC women’s flyweight title at UFC 247 in February 2020, then remained a ranked fixture through wins over Jennifer Maia, Cynthia Calvillo, Viviane Araujo and Amanda Ribas.
Horth brings the local angle. The British Columbia fighter is 9-3 overall and 4-3 in the UFC, with her most recent bout ending in a decision loss to J.J. Aldrich in April.
Canadian Names Fill Out The Card
The other five additions are:
- Mandel Nallo vs. Nate Landwehr at lightweight
- Marc-Andre Barriault vs. Kyle Daukaus at middleweight
- Tanner Boser vs. Jhonata Diniz at heavyweight
- Melissa Croden vs. Chelsea Chandler at women’s bantamweight
- Louis Jourdain vs. Timmy Cuamba at featherweight

Boser gives Alberta another local name on the card, while Barriault, Nallo, Croden and Jourdain add more Canadian depth below the two ranked fights. Jourdain is the brother of UFC bantamweight Charles Jourdain, and Boser returns to heavyweight against a dangerous finisher in Diniz.
The UFC event page lists 5 p.m. ET prelims and an 8 p.m. ET main card. With Buckley-Malott, Blanchfield-Jasudavicius and six additional bouts now posted, the Edmonton lineup has moved from a two-fight announcement into a fuller Canada-focused Fight Night card. The placement also keeps Blanchfield active after her earlier UFC 330 injury withdrawal shifted that contender matchup to a later date.
