Brandon Royval and Manel Kape are going to try to make their fight a reality one more time before year’s end.
The flyweight contenders will square off in the main event of a UFC Fight Night on Dec. 13 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Not only is that the promotion’s final offering of 2025, but it marks the end of the UFC’s broadcast partnership with ESPN. Beginning next year, Paramount+ and CBS will be the exclusive home of UFC events. Marcel Dorff was first to report the 125-pound matchup.
