The first UFC Fight Night show of 2021 is finally here!

In the main event, former UFC Featherweight Champion Max Holloway (21-6) will fight Calvin Kattar (22-4) following his back-to-back losses against Alexander Volkanovski. Those losses snapped a strong 14-fight winning streak in the 145-pound division.

On the other hand, Kattar enters following impressive wins over Dan Ige and Jeremy Stephens. The featherweight has won four out of his last five fights, with Zabit Magomedsharipov being the only blemish on his record.

In the co-main event, Matt Brown (22–17) and Carlos Condit (31–13) will go to war in a welterweight bout. Brown is hoping to rebound following his loss to Miguel Baeza back in May; Condit is hoping to continue building up momentum following his much-needed win over Court McGee in October.

Expect Li Jingliang, Joaquin Buckley, Punahele Soriano, Phil Hawes, Joselyne Edwards, Carlos Felipe, and Vanessa Melo to be in action as well. Check out the advertised line-up below:
