SAN JOSÉ, COSTA RICA / ACCESS Newswire / September 16, 2026 / Americas Cardroom ambassador Tommy "Gun" McMillen recorded his third UFC victory on Saturday, September 12, defeating Marwan Rahiki by unanimous decision at Noche UFC. The featherweight's professional record now stands at 12-0, including a 3-0 mark in the UFC.

The contest took place at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona. All three judges scored the bout for McMillen, returning cards of 29-28, 29-28 and 29-27. Rahiki received the first defeat of his professional career.

McMillen's performance included a knockdown of Rahiki in the third round after a difficult second round. Sustained pressure and effective grappling also contributed to the victory. The bout received Fight of the Night honors, earning McMillen a third consecutive $100,000 UFC bonus and increasing his bonus earnings to $300,000.

"I had the time of my life in there," McMillen said afterward.
