Background

The event was initially scheduled to take place at the SaskTel Centre in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, UFC president Dana White announced on April 9 that starting with UFC 249, all future events were indefinitely postponed. The event would have marked the promotion's second visit to Saskatoon, following UFC Fight Night: Holloway vs. Oliveira in August 2015. On May 21, the UFC announced the cancellation of the event in Canada.

A heavyweight bout between Curtis Blaydes and former Bellator Heavyweight Champion Alexander Volkov will serve as the event headliner.

A welterweight bout between former Bellator Welterweight Champion Lyman Good and Belal Muhammad was previously expected to take place at UFC 205 in November 2016, but Good was pulled from that event after being notified by the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) due to a potential anti-doping violation stemming from an out-of-competition drug test. The matchup was once again booked for UFC 249 in April 2020, but Good pulled out due to testing positive for COVID-19, being the first fighter to publicly acknowledge the fact. They are now expected to meet at this event.

Joe Solecki was expected to face Austin Hubbard at the event. However, Solecki was removed from the pairing for undisclosed reasons on June 13. He was replaced by promotional newcomer Max Rohskopf.

Matt Frevola was scheduled to face Frank Camacho at the event. However, Frevola was pulled from the fight during the week leading up to the event after teammate and cornerman Billy Quarantillo tested positive for COVID-19. Despite two negative tests, Frevola was removed from the bout in an abunadance of caution. Promotional newcomer Justin Jaynes was tabbed as a replacement to face Camacho.
