Edson Barboza vs Gilbert Melendez full fight video preview for UFC on FOX 20 co-main event

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) lightweight standout Edson Barboza welcomes former Strikeforce 155-pound champion Gilbert Melendez back to the Octagon at UFC on FOX 20, set for later tonight (Sat., July 23, 2016) inside United Center in Chicago, Illinois.

Barboza (17-4) is just 2-2 since beating Bobby Green back in 2014; however, he's in a much better spot than Melendez, at least in terms of career trajectory. "El Nino" (22-5) is coming off back-to-back losses and had to spend a year on the sidelines after flunking his UFC 188 drug test.

Check out their co-main event preview embedded above.
