UFC Long Island fight card
The headliner of the long Island fight card features former two-time title challenger Brian Ortega and top contender Yair Rodriguez. Both Ortega and Rodriguez are coming off defeats from their previous bouts and will be hoping for a win to keep themselves in title contention.
In his last outing, Ortega delivered one of the most action-packed title fights in recent history. 'T-City' almost submitted reigning featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski twice during the five rounds but ultimately lost via unanimous decision following a dominant showing from the champion.
Rodriguez, on the other hand, was on a three-fight winning streak before coming up short against former featherweight champion Max Holloway.
Another standout fight featured on the card is the flyweight clash between Askar Askarov and Alex Perez. Both fighters failed to secure victory in their recent outings.
Askarov is coming off his only career loss to Kai Kara-France. Former title challenger Perez is stepping inside the octagon for the first time since his submission defeat to current champion Deiveson Figueiredo.
