The UFC is headed back home this week, with a Las Vegas PPV headlined by Cris Cyborg. The featherweight champ has been a reasonable draw for the promotion so far, so she’s getting another newcomer to stomp. Frankie Edgar meets Brian Ortega in the co-main, and after that it’s aged vets and hyped prospects filling out the card. Most likely a standard UFC PPV offering moving forward.
