The event begins with the fight preliminary bouts on UFC Fight Pass at 6 p.m. ET. The prelims will continue on FX at 8 p.m., and the main card will get underway at 10 p.m. Online streaming of the prelims can be found via fuboTV, UFC Fight Pass and Fox Sports GO. Live streaming of the pay-per-view can be had via the UFC directly at UFC.TV and their YouTube channel.
In addition to the main event, the preliminary card features quite a few big names, like Thales Leites, Oleksiy Oliynyk, and others. The main card will begin with a middleweight contest between veterans Vitor Belfort, and Lyoto Machida.
Then it’s on to a bantamweight contest between John Lineker and Brian Kelleher, before a women’s strawweight matchup between Mackenzie Dern and Amanda Cooper. The best of the bunch, though, could be the co-main event between Ronaldo Souza and Kelvin Gastelum. Both are among the best middleweights in the division.
Nunes last defended her belt against Valentina Shevchenko, and also has a defense over Ronda Rousey to her name. She won the belt over Miesha Tate in July 2016. Pennington also owns a win over Tate, from November 2016, and that also happens to be her last fight.
