Tonight (Saturday, June 8th) The UFC is in Chicago with two titles on the line. The headliner is Henry Cejudo vs. Marlon Moraes for the UFC bantamweight crown. The co-main sees Valentina Shevchenko defending her flyweight title versus Jessica Eye.
Cejudo and Moraes are competing for the vacant UFC bantamweight title. That belt was vacated by T.J. Dillashaw after he tested positive for EPO. That was after Dillashaw was defeated by Cejudo in a flyweight title bout in January. Moraes finds himself in a title fight after a four fight winning streak versus Raphael Assuncao, Jimmie Rivera, Aljamain Sterling, and John Dodson.
