UFC 237 takes place tonight from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, continuing the worldwide expansion of the brand.
Even without the likes of Daniel Cormier, Jon Jones, or Brock Lesnar, the card still holds major significance.
The main event, featuring women’s strawweight champion Rose Namajunas battling a powerhouse in Jessica Andrade, offers a fascinating clash of styles. UFC 237 also includes a featherweight fight between Alexander Volkanovski and Jose Aldo that is important for both fighters as well as the entire featherweight division.
The legendary Anderson Silva is back with a fight against Jared Cannonier. Silva made news earlier this week with a public request to UFC president Dana White for a fight against Conor McGregor.
