Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is just over 24 hours away from its upcoming UFC Charlotte mixed martial arts (MMA) event, headlined by the 265-pound showdown between Top 15 heavyweight contenders Jairzinho Rozenstruik and Jailton Almeida. The action gets underway this Sat. night (May 13, 2023) on ABC, ESPN, and ESPN+ from inside Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina, and also features a light heavyweight co-headliner between former title challenger Anthony Smith and Brazilian fan favorite Johnny Walker.
