As it builds towards the crescendo of UFC 202 and the Conor McGregor-Nate Diaz rematch in a matter of weeks, the Ultimate Fighting Championship hands the torch to one of its most promising young featherweights.
The once-beaten Yair Rodriguez will meet Alex Caceres in the UFC Fight Night 92 main event on Saturday at the Vivint Smart Home Arena in Salt Lake City. In the featherweight co-headliner, Dennis Bermudez collides with “The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil” Season 1 winner Rony Mariano Bezerra. The rest of the six-fight main card features a welterweight clash pitting Santiago Ponzinibbio against Zak Cummings, a women’s strawweight affair matching Maryna Moroz with Danielle Taylor and a pair of middleweight battles, as Thales Leites locks horns with Chris Camozzi and Trevor Smith squares off with Joseph Gigliotti.
