The UFC is back in Vancouver on Saturday, August 27th, and the main event is a real mouthwatering clash in the welterweight division. Carlos Condit returns to action for the first time since losing to Robbie Lawler for the welterweight title, as “The Natural Born Killer” faces Demian Maia in a five-round clash. The co-main event pits Anthony Pettis against Charles Oliveira in what is Pettis’ featherweight debut.
Rounding out the main card is Paige VanZant’s return against Bec Rawlings, while Joe Lauzon and Jim Miller lock horns again just under 4 years after Miller beat Lauzon in an epic battle at UFC 155.
