Background
A light heavyweight bout between Dominick Reyes and former UFC Middleweight Champion Chris Weidman has been slated to serve as the event headliner.
A featherweight bout between Zabit Magomedsharipov and Calvin Kattar was scheduled to take place at this event. However, in mid-September promotion officials elected to reschedule the pairing for undisclosed reasons and take place three weeks later at UFC on ESPN+ 21.
A middleweight bout between Brendan Allen and Eric Spicely was scheduled for the event. However, Spicely was forced to withdraw from the event for an undisclosed reason. He was replaced by Kevin Holland.
UFC President Dana White announced that Yair Rodriguez and Jeremy Stephens were re-booked as the co-main event to UFC on ESPN 6, after their fight in Mexico City ended in a no contest, due to an accidental eye poke rendered Stephens unable to continue.
