Background
The event was expected to be headlined by a light heavyweight bout between former title challengers Alexander Gustafsson and Glover Teixeira. However, Gustafsson pulled out of the bout on May 1 due to an injury. In turn, Teixeira was removed from the card entirely and was rescheduled against a different opponent at a future event. Subsequently, a UFC Women's Strawweight Championship bout between current champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk and former Invicta FC Atomweight champion Jessica Penne will now headline the event.
Makwan Amirkhani was expected to face Diego Rivas at the event. However, shortly after the bout was announced, Rivas was pulled from the fight due to undisclosed reasons. Amirkhani is expected to remain on the card against Masio Fullen.
A welterweight bout between Sérgio Moraes and Peter Sobotta was originally booked for UFC Fight Night: Gonzaga vs. Cro Cop 2. However, the bout was cancelled due to Sobotta being injured. Moraes remained on the card against a different opponent. The fight was later rescheduled for this event. On June 9, the fight was scrapped once again as Moraes pulled out for undisclosed reasons. He was replaced by promotional newcomer Steve Kennedy.
A light heavyweight bout between Nikita Krylov and Marcos Rogério de Lima was brifely linked to this event. However the paring is now expected to take place a week later at The Ultimate Fighter Brazil 4 Finale.
Derek Brunson was expected to face Krzysztof Jotko at the event. However, Brunson pulled out of the fight on June 9 citing a rib injury and was replaced by Uriah Hall.
