Preview: UFC Fight Night 131 ‘Thompson vs. Till’

For the third straight week, the Ultimate Fighting Championship will broadcast from a shiny new locale, but with a weak card. All roads lead to UFC 225, and the rest is just filler until we finally get there next weekend. As with the last two events, UFC Fight Night 131 from Utica, New York, is headlined by an intriguing and divisionally relevant battle. Fortunately, Jimmie Rivera and Marlon Moraes should deliver where the last two headliners failed: in the action department.

The rest of the slate lacks anything else truly noteworthy.
