Preview: UFC Fight Night 245 Prelims

The UFC's second straight week in the Apex comes with six prelims, led by one of the better fights on the card; fresh off dropping a main event in April, Matheus Nicolau finds himself holding down the featured spot against top flyweight prospect Asu Almabaev. Past that, there are some points of intrigue; bantamweight Jean Matsumoto looks to continue proving that he's a prospect to watch with a win over Brad Katona, former strawweight title challenger Jessica Penne is back in action, and heavyweight prospect Robelis Despaigne looks to get his hype train back on track after a disheartening performance in his last bout.
