O UFC 311 trouxe um acontecimento no mínimo, curioso. Todos os quatro atletas invictos que se apresentaram no evento terminaram a noite com uma derrota no cartel. Mesmo neste contexto, a derrota de Talbott foi surpreendente. Raoni Barcelos era a maior zebra de todo pay per view and one of the greatest in the history of Ultimate, so the dominant performance came as a shock to many, who saw the American as one of the sport's top prospects.
Além de Payton Talbott, Umar Nurmagomedov, Clayton Carpenter e Rinya Nakamura foram derrotados pela primeira vez.
