The UFC started the month with a PPV and it will end it with one as the hotly anticipated rematch between Julianna Pena (11-4-0) and Amanda Nunes (21-5-0) is on. Pena shocked the world by upsetting Nunes as a 6-1 underdog, something she looks to do again with significant UFC odds against her.
Anchoring the co-main event is another exciting rematch: an interim flyweight title bout between former champion Brandon Moreno (19-6-2) and Kai Kara-France (24-9-0). Moreno beat France before but the Kiwi has won three straight fights and could be a dangerous underdog here.
