Related Topics: Gilbert Burns, UFC

The Ultimate Fighting Championship returns from a rare off week and settles in with UFC Fight Night 242—a strong show, per UFC Apex standards—on Saturday in Las Vegas. The top two bouts should help answer some questions about the title pictures in their respective divisions. The main event sees Gilbert Burns take on Sean Brady in a well-matched welterweight affair, while top women’s flyweight prospect Natalia Silva looks to announce herself as a contender with a win over former 115-pound champion Jessica Andrade in the co-headliner. Beyond that, opponents are matched strongly in terms of action potential.
