Set to face against Landwehr
Emmers will fight Nate Landwehr at UFC Atlantic City on March 30, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Emmers will step into the octagon as a late addition to the card, as Landwehr was initially expected to take on Pat Sabatini, but since the latter withdrew from the event due to undisclosed reasons, Emmers will now be his opponent. Emmers is a veteran by UFC standards since he's 34 years old already, and he will look to start a winning run after securing a victory in his most recent fight. He's gone 3-3 at the UFC level in his career.

Cruises after weight miss
Emmers defeated Dennis Buzukja via TKO (punches) at 0:49 of Round 1 at UFC 295 on Saturday in New York City.
ANALYSIS
Shortly after crushing an overmatched Buzukja, Emmers was running around the octagon screaming "50K", obviously in reference to a post-fight bonus. He absolutely deserves one for his dominant effort. Unfortunately for Jamall, he's ineligible after missing weight by a pound on Friday morning. The good news for Emmers is that one pound isn't a difficult fix. That said, it absolutely has to be rectified before his next bout. The 34-year-old California native improves to 3-3 in his first half-dozen UFC fights.

Misses weight
Emmers weighed in at 147 pounds for his featherweight bout against Dennis Buzukja at UFC 295 on Saturday and will be fined 20 percent of his purse, Alexander K. Lee of MMAJunkie.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Emmers avoided a weight miss for his split-decision loss to Jack Jenkins in June as he made the featherweight limit on a second attempt, but UFC 295 is in New York, where an extra hour to hit weight limits is only given for title fights. Emmers has a 2-3 record in the UFC and has alternated wins and losses since coming up through Dana White's Contender Series.

Draws Buzukja at UFC 295
Emmers will take on Dennis Buzukja in a featherweight matchup at UFC 295 on November 11, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Emmers has alternated wins and losses in each of his five UFC fights to compile a record of 2-3 overall. He'll be taking an opponent in Buzukja who appeared on Contender Series twice before getting his UFC opportunity, which resulted in a decision defeat to Sean Woodson. Emmers will enter this matchup with height and reach advantages, as well as greater striking volume and takedown averages.

Gets no help from judges in loss
Emmers lost to Jack Jenkins via split decision (30-27, 28-29, 28-29) at UFC on ABC 5 on Saturday in Jacksonville, Florida.
ANALYSIS
Emmers isn't going to be happy with the result here, and he has a legitimate beef. The first two rounds were exceedingly close, but it certainly appeared as if Emmers did enough to win at least one, if not both. The final frame was no contest, with an Emmers takedown leading to 4:09 worth of control time. This is the risk you run when you let a fight see the scorecards, but that won't make the result any easier for Emmers to swallow. Set to turn 34 years of age in late July, Jamall has alternated losses and wins in his first five UFC bouts.
