The UFC is back on Fight Island, also known as Yas Island, a man-made peninsula off of Abu Dhabi, UAE. The first of their Fall desert schedule features two bantamweights vying for the next shot at champion Amanda Nunes.
Holly Holm, a former champion herself, takes on Irene Aldana, who has surged up the rankings thanks to wins over Vanessa Melo and Ketlen Vieira. For their fight to be official in the bantamweight division, both fighters must weigh no more than 136 lbs.
Also on the main card, former UFC featherweight champion Germaine de Randamie takes on TUF winner Julianna Peña.
