This is the UFC 251 live blog for Amanda Ribas vs. Paige VanZant, a flyweight main card bout on Saturday’s fight card at Yas Island in Abu Dhabi.
VanZant returns after another injury layoff due to ongoing complications from a broken arm suffered in 2018 during a fight with Jessica-Rose Clark. Most recently, she submitted Rachael Ostovich at UFC on ESPN 1. Ribas is four months removed from her third consecutive UFC win, a decision over Randa Markos.
