The UFC is back again this weekend with another show produced at their APEX facility in Las Vegas. The main event this time is an all-Brazilian affair with former UFC light heavyweight title challenger Thiago Santos meeting Johnny Walker.

The co-main is Kevin Holland vs. Kyle Daukaus. The main card also sees Niko Price and Alex Oliveira going at it and Aspen Ladd meeting Macy Chiasson.

A lightweight battle headlines the prelims with Joe Solecki vs. Jared Gordon. There’s also an appearance by Antonina Shevchenko, who meets Casey O’Neill.

Of course, before any of these fights take place, the competitors must make it past the scales.
