A closer look at the main event
In the women’s flyweight class, Erin Blanchfield and Manon Fiorot are ranked Nos. 2 and 3, respectively, and they both enter the fight on a protracted winning run.

Other fights to look out for
Apart from the main event, the co-main event between Vicente Luque and Joaquin Buckley promises to be a barn burner of a fight. There is a very good chance the fight will not go the distance. In addition, the fight card also features former champion Chris Weidman who takes on Bruno Silva.
