The 145-pound division comes into focus one week after former UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway fought Charles Oliveira for the BMF title. Over the next two weeks, featherweight fighters headline UFC Fight Nights around the globe.
Josh Emmett and Kevin Vallejos headline the promotion’s return to the Meta APEX on Saturday. Vallejos, one of the best new contenders in the division, is coming off a spinning backfist knockout over Giga Chikadze. He meets a fellow KO artist in Emmett, who hopes to stop the bleeding after consecutive losses.
One week later, UFC Fight Night heads to London with a featherweight title shot likely at stake. Movsar Evloev and Lerone Murphy are most deserving of a shot at UFC champion Alexander Volkanovski. Murphy, the underdog, has a hometown advantage as he looks to upset Evloev.

The April 11 card also features a long-overdue fight between Bellator alums Patricio Pitbull and Aaron Pico.
