The Ultimate Fighting Championship returns to the newly renovated Meta APEX in Las Vegas for a loaded UFC Fight Night card.
In the main event of the evening, surging bantamweight standout Mario Bautista looks to continue his climb up the ranks when he meets Brazilian bruiser Vinicius Oliveira.
After seeing his eight-fight win streak snapped by Umar Nurmagomedov in October, Bautista will look to climb back into the win column. Meanwhile, Oliveira rides into ‘Sin City’ having won six straight, including four in a row under the UFC banner.
Also on tap is a potential flyweight title eliminator as No. 6 ranked contender Amir Albazi meets former Bellator and RIZIN champion Kyoji Horiguchi in a can’t-miss co-main event.
