Meanwhile, the co-main event features our second title fight today, this one will be for the UFC Interim Bantamweight Championship between #1 ranked, Petr ‘No Mercy’ Yan, with a record of 15-2 and the #3 ranked, Cory ‘The Sandman’ Sandhagen, with a 14-3 record.
Also on the card, we had a highly-anticipated Lightweight match between Islam Makhachev and Dan ‘The Hangman’ Hooker. As well as an eagerly-awaited Welterweight tilt between, ‘The Leech’ Jingliang Li, and the undefeated phenom, Khamzat ‘Borz’ Chimaev. Plus, two exciting showdowns including Heavyweights Alexander ‘Drago’ Volkov vs. Marcin ‘Tybur’ Tybura, and Light Heavyweights Magomed Ankalaev vs. Volkan ‘No Time’ Oezdemir, in our main card opener.
