Background
The event marked the promotion's first visit to Denmark.[2]
A middleweight bout between Jack Hermansson and Jared Cannonier served as the event headliner.[4]
Danny Henry was briefly linked to a featherweight bout with Mike Davis at the event.[5] However, Henry pulled out of the bout for undisclosed reasons in mid-September. In turn, Davis was pulled from the card and is expected to be rescheduled for a future event.[6]
Former UFC Welterweight Championship challenger Thiago Alves was scheduled to face Gunnar Nelson at the event. However, Alves pulled out of the fight in mid-September due to an undisclosed injury.[7] He was replaced by Gilbert Burns.[8]
A middleweight bout between Alessio Di Chirico and Peter Sobotta was scheduled for the event.[9] However, Sobotta was forced out of the bout and was replaced by promotional newcomer Makhmud Muradov.[10]
