UFC continues its series of events in Las Vegas with UFC Fight Night: Hermansson vs Vettori, an intriguing middleweight bout that will see No. 4 ranked contender Jack Hermansson take on No. 13 Marvin Vettori. Also, former interim light heavyweight title challenger Ovince Saint Preux faces undefeated Jamahal Hill.
Hermansson (21-5, fighting out of Oslo, Norway) hopes to make the most of his third UFC main event by stopping Holland’s momentum in highlight-reel fashion. Known for his devastating ground-and-pound, Hermansson has netted memorable victories against Kelvin Gastelum, Jacare Souza, David Branch and Thales Leites. Hermansson is now poised to defend his spot in the middleweight top five with another vintage performance.
Vettori (15-4-1, fighting out of Mezzocorona, Italy) steps on on short notice to replace Kevin Holland, and in the process hopes to take Hermansson’s top 5 ranking and inch closer to a rematch with champion Israel Adesanya. Vettori is currently riding a three-fight win streak.
