The UFC is back in the APEX in Las Vegas for an August 6th card that doubles as the season finale of The Ultimate Fighter. In the main event, light heavyweight contender Jamahal Hill takes on former title challenger Thiago Santos in another big test for Hill, while welterweight action fighters Vicente Luque and Geoff Neal face off in the co-main.

As for the TUF finals, Mohammed Usman, brother of UFC welterweight champion Kamaru, will look to win the heavyweight tournament against Zac Pauga. In the women’s flyweight bracket, Brogan Walker-Sanchez takes on Juliana Miller. Of the four finalists, only Walker-Sanchez made it through from Team Amanda Nunes, so the good news for the former champ Pena is she’ll get at least one TUF champ.

Here’s the full lineup for UFC Vegas 59, and yeah Sam Alvey is on the card. Will this be the time he gets a win?
