The main event will be a welterweight title fight, with reigning champion Islam Makhachev facing the division’s No. 1 contender Ian Machado Garry in the Octagon.

Two title fights and clashes featuring veteran stars

The tournament’s co-main event will also feature a title on the line. In the women’s strawweight division, reigning champion Mackenzie Dern will defend her belt against the No. 5-ranked contender Jillian Robertson .

In addition, the main card will feature Octagon veteran and knockout specialist Edson Barboza against skilled lightweight fighter Esteban Ribovics . At middleweight, undefeated prospect Mansur Abdul-Malik will face experienced fighter Dustin Stoltzfus .

Unexpected change three days before the event

A major late change has been made to the tournament card. Jose Ochoa, who was scheduled to fight Charles Johnson, withdrew from the event for undisclosed reasons just three days before it.
