After a complete month off due to COVID-19, the UFC makes a comeback for a night packed with action. On the main card is Tony Ferguson going up against Justin Gaethje. Ferguson comes into the match as the number one lightweight contender, former interim lightweight champion, Ultimate Fighter Season 13 champion, collegiate wrestling champion and boasts 20 wins by knockout or submission.

However, Gaethje comes in as the fourth-ranked lightweight, a former World Series of Fighting Lightweight champion and a NCAA Division 1 All-American in wrestling, with three of his five UFC fights having won Fight of the Year honors. With impressive records to protect as well as the backing of excited fans, this match-up is sure to have the sparks flying.

Ferguson vs. Gaethje may be the highlight, but the preceding match-ups are also promising some fireworks. Also on the card: Current bantamweight champion Henry Cejudo goes against former two-time UFC Bantamweight champion Dominick Cruz. Francis Ngannou, a former title challenger and number two ranked heavyweight in the world, will also face off against Jairzinho Rozenstruik, a Surinamese kickboxer and the sixth-ranked heavyweight.

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the matches are expected to take place “in an empty arena with practically no one in attendance but the fighters, a referee and a tripped back broadcast team,” CNET reports alt:nofollow.

UFC 249 prelims start at 6 p.m ET while the main event begins at 10 p.m. ET.
