Beneil Dariush Says Manuel Torres Fight Is “Done,” But Dates Keep Slipping

Dariush said UFC told him his Torres matchup is “basically done,” yet he’s heard that before. “They said the same thing for February 28th, then March 7th, and then now April,” he explained, still waiting on a signed contract. Dariush (23-7) hasn’t fought since a Nov. 2025 loss to Benoit Saint Denis, while Torres (17-3) is a fast-rising lightweight finisher.
