After returning to Macau, China last weekend it is back to the Meta Apex for UFC Vegas 118 on Saturday, with the UFC putting on an under-the-radar Fight Night event prior to the UFC Freedom 250 card at the White House on June 14.
The two biggest names on the UFC Vegas 118 card are of course the headliners: former welterweight champ Belal Muhammad is looking to shake off back-to-back losses (to Jack Della Maddalena and Ian Machado Garry) when he takes on rising Brazilian star Gabriel Bonfim. It is a big step up for Bonfim, who has won four straight bouts since a loss to Nicolas Dalby a few years back.
Brendan Allen faces off against Edmen Shahbazyan in the co-main event at middleweight, while Bryce Mitchell took on Santiago Luna — a massive step up for bantamweight Luna.
