Preview: UFC Fight Night 211 Prelims

The Ultimate Fighting Championship on Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas returns from a one-week break with UFC Fight Night 211, which features a solid preliminary slate that includes a bit more name value than usual. That is particularly true of the top two bouts: Former headliners Ilir Latifi and Alexey Oleynik are matched at heavyweight atop the undercard and should provide some manner of entertainment, while onetime women’s strawweight title challenger Jessica Penne looks to hold serve against surging prospect Tabatha Ricci. Meanwhile, Krzysztof Jotko and Brendan Allen square off in a middleweight affair that could earn the victor a ranking at 185 pounds, and festivities figure to get off to a hot start with bantamweight banger Randy Costa looking to continue his streak of exciting performances against Guido Cannetti.
