After dropping his first two UFC contests, Kopylov has shown incredible improvement over the last couple of years. Since September 2022, Kopylov has knocked out four consecutive opponents inside the octagon, stopping Alessio Di Chirico, Punahele Soriano, and Claudio Ribeiro, the most recent of which took place at UFC 291 in July.
Fremd, who earned a contract on Dana White's Lookin' For a Fight in February 2022, had a two-fight win streak snapped in the loss. Fremd began 2023 with back-to-back wins over Sedriques Dumas and Jamie Pickett.
