Background

The event is expected to be headlined by Lightweight contenders Benson Henderson and Rafael dos Anjos.

The event will be the second visit to Tulsa, Oklahoma, the first being UFC 4, nearly 20 years ago.

Jordan Mein was expected to face Thiago Alves at the event. However Alves pulled out of the bout with an injury and was replaced by Brandon Thatch. Subsequently, Thatch also pulled out of the bout with Mein citing a toe injury. Mein is now expected to face Mike Pyle at the event, as Pyle's scheduled opponent Demian Maia, also pulled out of their bout with an staph infection.

As a result of the cancellation of UFC 176, bouts between Beneil Dariush vs. Tony Martin, James Vick vs. Valmir Lazaro and Matt Dwyer vs. Alex Garcia were rescheduled for this event. However, Dwyer was removed from his bout with Garcia and replaced by Neil Magny.

Ernest Chavez was expected to face Mirsad Bektic at the event. However, Chavez was forced out of the bout with an injury and was replaced by Max Holloway. In turn, Bektic pulled out of the bout in the week leading up to the event and was replaced by promotional newcomer Clay Collard.

Tim Elliott was expected to face Wilson Reis at the event. However, Elliott pulled out of the bout in the days leading up to the event. Reis will now face promotional newcomer Joby Sanchez.
