If there are two men who are worthy of fighting for a BMF title, then it is hard to argue beyond these two men. The rest of the main card is equally excellent, and is a must watch from Salt Lake City, Utah. The co-main event sees Alex “Poatan” Pereira making his long-awaited move up to 205 pounds to take on perennial contender Jan Blachowicz. Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson and Michel Pereira clash in an extremely fan friendly welterweight clash, whilst part two of that sees Tony “El Cucuy” Ferguson takes on Bobby Green in another epic fight. The main card is opened with a banger of a welterweight fight between Michael Chiesa and Kevin Holland.

Make sure to tune in for UFC 291 tomorrow night! Trust me, this is a card you do not want to miss.
