The UFC is ready to kick off its first event in Florida during the ESPN era. UFC on ESPN+ 8: Jacaré vs. Hermansson will be held on Saturday, April 27 at BB&T Center in Sunrise, Florida.
The show features Ronaldo “Jacaré” Souza (26-6-1) taking on Jack Hermansson (19-4) in the main event. Originally, a scheduled bout between Yoel Romero and Souza was set to take place at UFC Fort Lauderdale. But the ‘Soldier of God’ was then forced to pull out due to a case of pneumonia.
