UFC returns Saturday night when Tony Ferguson and Justin Gaethje fight for the interim lightweight championship at UFC 249 in Jacksonville.
The event will be held at VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena after an eight-week hiatus due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Ferguson (25–3), who has won 12 consecutive bouts, was set to fight Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 249 in Brooklyn last month until the pandemic disrupted those plans. Gaethje (21-2) won his last three bouts and was chosen to replace Nurmagomedov in the bout. UFC president Dana White previously said the winner of Saturday's event will face Nurmagomedov.
