Venue Location
Arena CDMX (formerly Palacio de los Deportes), Mexico City, Mexico. This iconic indoor arena in central Mexico City sits at high altitude (~7,350 ft / 2,240 m), often favoring fighters with excellent cardio, efficient striking, or strong grappling who can manage pace without gassing. The Octagon setup offers prime visibility, and with Zellhuber as a Mexican fighter, expect explosive home-crowd support to amplify energy on this stacked card.

Fighter Matchups / Tale of the Tape
Daniel Zellhuber (“Golden Boy”) vs. King Green (“Bobby”) – Lightweight (155 lbs) – 3 Rounds
- Zellhuber: 26 years old (born July 7, 1999), 15-3-0 pro (UFC 3-3), 5’11” (180 cm), 72–74″ reach (estimated), orthodox, Mexico City/Tijuana area (Romero Team & Xtreme Couture). Explosive striker with power (multiple KOs), athleticism, and finishing threat; DWCS grad with high-volume potential.
- Green: 39 years old (born September 9, 1986), 33-17-1 (1 NC) pro (UFC 14-12-1-1 NC), 5’10” (178 cm), 71″ reach, orthodox/southpaw, California, USA. Veteran boxer with crisp striking, durability, and experience (close to 30 UFC fights); recent wins show resurgence but age/fight mileage factor.
Style Breakdown: Zellhuber brings youth, athleticism, power, and forward pressure—seeks early finishes or high-output wars. Green counters with technical boxing, counters, and veteran IQ; excels in chaotic stand-up but vulnerable to younger pace/power. Zellhuber holds edges in youth, reach (slight), athleticism, and home energy; Green’s experience and chin could extend it to decisions or late counters. Altitude may test Green’s cardio more in prolonged exchanges.
Recent Form
- Zellhuber (15-3, current 2-fight losing streak): Rising prospect rebounding. Losses to tougher competition (e.g., recent setbacks in 2025); prior UFC wins featured finishes and excitement. DWCS standout signed in 2022—motivated for biggest win yet in hometown.
- Green (33-17-1-1 NC, recent resurgence): Veteran momentum. Late-2025 split decision win over Lance Gibson Jr.; prior wins include Jim Miller, Grant Dawson, Tony Ferguson. 2025-2026 form shows veteran savvy but age (39) and mileage tested against rising talents.
Fight History / Key Notes
No prior head-to-head. Zellhuber (UFC since 2022) has exciting, finish-oriented style (high SLpM potential) but needs to halt skid vs. elite vet. Green (UFC vet since ~2013) nears 30 appearances—recent wins highlight boxing edge, but losses often via power/pace. Main card lightweight clash: Zellhuber seeks statement home win; Green aims to extend streak and prove veteran relevance. Altitude + stand-up focus = potential fireworks or decision grind.
Betting Trends
- Lightweight main card bouts at altitude often produce finishes if power mismatches; Zellhuber’s athleticism draws heavy KO props.
- Books shade Zellhuber heavily—value on props (inside distance, KO) over ML juice; Green’s +350+ offers upset appeal for sharps.
