Background

edit

A featherweight bout between Cub Swanson and Artem Lobov headlined the event.[2]

A welterweight bout between former UFC Middleweight Championship challenger Demian Maia and future UFC Welterweight Championship challengerJorge Masvidal was initially targeted to headline this event.[3] However it was moved to UFC 211.[4]

At the weigh-ins, Marcos Rogério de Lima came in at 210 lb, four pounds over the light heavyweight limit of 206 lb. As a result, he was fined 30% of his purse, which will go to his opponent Ovince Saint Preux and the bout proceeded at a catchweight.[5]
