The UFC is back after two consecutive weekends off, and they’re capping off August with the return of Justin Gaethje. In need of a win after suffering back-to-back losses, the former WSOF lightweight champ will take on rising contender James Vick, who is in his first career UFC main event spot.
Co-main event honors go to featherweights Michael Johnson and Andre Fili, which is really a must-win for “The Menace” at this point given he’s lost five of his last six. Also of note is a matchup between John Moraga and Deiveson Figueiredo, which is the first non-title men’s flyweight bout to appear on a UFC main card in 2018.
