Jai Herbert has 'got everything' to take out Matheus Camilo at UFC Vegas 122

Jai Herbert respects UFC Vegas 122 co-main event foe Matheus Camilo, but says the skills are on a different level.

Jai Herbert is set to face Matheus Camilo at UFC Fight Night 290 this Saturday in Las Vegas. The lightweight co-headliner features Herbert, who recently secured a first-round knockout victory over Manel Nallo, going up against Camilo, an 11-3 MMA record holder with a 2-1 UFC record. Herbert, a 14-6-1 MMA and 4-5-1 UFC fighter, believes his extensive skillset gives him the edge in this matchup.

Describing Camilo as a "young, up-and-coming lad" who can box and wrestle, Herbert is confident in his abilities and experience. Despite a recent string of up-and-down performances, Herbert is determined to secure a victory, stating he is prepared for a three-round fight and looking to finish the bout.
