The main card, which follows prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass, features two championship fights. In the headliner, Demetrious Johnson (26-2-1 MMA, 14-1-1 UFC) goes for a UFC record 11th consecutive title defense when he meets challenger Ray Borg (11-2 MMA, 5-2 UFC). The co-main event will pit women’s bantamweight titleholder Amanda Nunes (14-4 MMA, 7-1 UFC) against Valentina Shevchenko (14-2 MMA, 3-1 UFC) in a bout rescheduled after it was pulled last-minute from UFC 213 in July.
