Taking main event status at the UFC Apex facility is a high-stakes, potential bantamweight title-eliminator between the surging #4 ranked contender, Rob Font, and former undisputed featherweight champion, the #5 rated, Jose Aldo.
In the midst of an impressive four-fight winning run, New England Cartel standout, Font most recently headlined UFC Vegas 25 back in May — handing former bantamweight kingpin, Cody Garbrandt a one-sided unanimous decision loss.
Prior to that win, Font bested the trio of Marlon Moraes, Ricky Simon, and current Bellator bantamweight best, Sergio Pettis.
For Aldo, the veteran Manaus striker is in the midst of a two-fight winning run — most recently co-headlining UFC 265 in August, defeating fellow Brazilian, Pedro Munhoz with a unanimous decision win.
