Check out all the fights announced over the past week in the UFC, Bellator and other promotions.

Fights on Tap is a weekly roundup of all the fights booked in the UFC, Bellator and other promotions.

There is no UFC or Bellator, but there is a Cage Warriors doubleheader and a KSW event if you still need your fill of fisticuffs this weekend. Because we’re on a break, let’s move forward and see what we have ahead of us on the upcoming schedule.

The UFC either announced or finalized 19 fights this week, and a highly anticipated championship rematch has been confirmed for the summer.

Is Julianna Peña going to shock the world again, or will Amanda Nunes reclaim her throne? We’re about to find out because the championship rematch between the ‘Venezuelan Vixen’ and the ‘Lioness’ is expected to headline UFC 277, the upcoming pay-per-view event scheduled on July 30 at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, TX. Peña defeated Nunes via second-round rear-naked choke at UFC 269 this past December. The former champion was on a 12-fight win streak that included several title defenses in the bantamweight and featherweight divisions.

Before their rematch was booked, both women served as coaches on the most recent season of The Ultimate Fighter, TUF 30 (currently airing on ESPN+). Now that filming has completed, Peña and Nunes will prepare for their second meeting.
