Gable Steveson is set to make his long-awaited UFC debut against Elisha Ellison on the main card of UFC 329 on July 11.
The heavyweight bout will go down at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, where Steveson enters with a 3-0 MMA record, all by first-round knockout. Ellison brings a 5-2 MMA record into the matchup and is 0-1 in the UFC.
Oddsmakers have already drawn a clear line between the two, with Caesars Sportsbook listing Steveson as a -2000 favorite and Ellison as a +900 underdog.
Steveson arrives in the Octagon as an Olympic gold medalist and two-time NCAA wrestling champion. After the 2020 Summer Games, he joined WWE before turning fully to non-scripted combat sports in 2025, and now trains under Jon Jones.
