Marvin Vettori and Kevin Holland both made weight for their UFC Vegas 23 middleweight main event on Sat. (April 10, 2021), which takes place inside the promotion’s APEX facility in Las Vegas, Nevada. At the conclusion of today’s scale-tipping festivities, “The Italian Dream” came face-to-face with “Trailblazer.”
Watch them square off in the embedded video above.
Vettori (16-4-1) is coming off four straight wins, including last December’s unanimous decision victory over Jack Hermansson. Holland (21-6) took over for the injured Darren Till on super-short notice and will try to bounce back from his recent loss to Derek Brunson.
Below is a look at the co-main event staredown between Arnold Allen and Sodiq Yusuff.
Young and hungry!
