Arnold Allen has been unstoppable in the UFC so far. He is on a nine-fight winning streak and is coming off a first-round TKO victory against Dan Hooker. He is yet to lose a fight in the promotion. 

On the other hand, Calvin Kattar has two losses in his last three matches. He is coming off a split decision loss against Josh Emmett. 

Now, it remains to be seen whether Kattar will be able to give Allen his first loss on October 29 or will the latter continue his dominant run.
