The UFC remains at its Las Vegas APEX facility this weekend, with another on if its UFC Vegas 17 card. This Saturday, main event honours go to welterweights Stephen Thompson and Geoff Neal.

For former title challenger Thompson he will look to build on his win over Vincente Luque at UFC 244 last November. Neal will be looking to extend his perfect UFC run and seven fight winning streak, which saw him TKO Mike Perry last time out.

The co-main sees former UFC featherweight champ Jose Aldo take on Marlon Vera. The main card also has a certified banger with Michel Pereira taking on Khaos Williams.

Of course all these fights need to become official first and in the COVID-19 era, you can’t assume that will happen until both fighters step into the cage. To make sure these fights make it to fight night, we have the weigh-ins beginning at 12 PM ET.

You can view them live below:

There will, of course, be no ceremonial weigh-ins for this event.
