With a potential championship fight on the line, Yair Rodriguez will stake his claim as the next featherweight title challenger
After over 19 months from their first meeting, top five featherweights Yair Rodriguez and Brian Ortega will face each other once more with similar stakes on the line.
Since their initial matchup as the main event of UFC Long Island in July 2022, Rodriguez has gone 1-1 in two title fights, dominating Josh Emmett to win the interim belt before losing by TKO to Alexander Volkanovski at UFC 290.
