Although fans are already excited about the UFC matches, they are most excited about Nick Diaz vs. Tony Ferguson. 

Diaz is the older brother of Nate Diaz and has not fought since his TKO defeat to Robbie Lawler in 2021. Diaz's professional MMA record stands at 26-10 (two no contest).

Ferguson will participate in the UFC Night to end his seven-bout losing streak. He last fought in December when he lost to Paddy Pimblett.
