Background
Sijara Eubanks was expected to face Nicco Montaño in the finals of the season to determine the inaugural UFC Women's Flyweight Champion. However on the day of weigh ins, Eubanks was ruled medically ineligible for the card after a visit to the hospital overnight for allegedly miscalculating her weight cut, which led promotion officials to replace her with Roxanne Modafferi.
A women's flyweight bout between promotional newcomer Priscila Cachoeira and former Invicta FC Bantamweight Champion Lauren Murphy was expected to take place at the event. However, the pairing never materialized due to alleged visa issues for Cachoeira. Murphy still weighed in as an alternate for any bout at the event and was then booked against former Invicta FC Flyweight Champion Barb Honchak, who was left without an opponent after Modafferi was pulled in favor of the main event.
At the weigh ins, Karine Gevorgyan weighed in at 130 pounds, 4 pounds over the flyweight upper limit of 126 pounds. As such, the bout will proceed at a catchweight and Gevorgyan forfeited 30% of her purse to Rachael Ostovich-Berdon.
