A pivotal  showdown between undefeated welterweight contenders is the UFC 310 co-main event as Shavkat Rakhmonov takes on Ian Machado Garry. This bout scheduled for five rounds is taking place Saturday, Dec. 7 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Originally, Rakhmonov (18-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) was slated to challenge 170-pound champion Belal Muhammad until Muhammad was forced to withdraw with a foot infection, opening the door for Machado Garry (15-0 MMA, 8-0 UFC) to potentially steal the title shot with a win at UFC 310.

Since his UFC debut in October 2020, Rakhmonov has earned notable wins over Neil Magny, Geoff Neal and most recently Stephen Thompson in his past three appearances. Machado Garry made his UFC debut in November 2021 and owns common notable wins over Magny and Neal, as well as former Bellator title challenger Michael Page in his most recent bout.

Here are the walkout times for the UFC 310 co-main event between Rakhmonov and Machado Garry.
