Background

A light heavyweight bout between former UFC Light Heavyweight Championship challenger Dominick Reyes and former Rizin Light Heavyweight Champion Jiří Procházka served as the main event.[3] The pairing was initially expected to take place as the headliner on February 27, but they were rescheduled after Reyes had been forced from the contest with an injury.[4][5]

A welterweight bout between Mike Jackson and Dean Barry was briefly linked to UFC on ESPN: Chiesa vs. Magny in January, but it was pulled due to undisclosed reasons.[6] They were then expected to meet at this event before being rescheduled once again.[7]

Gavin Tucker was briefly linked to a bout with Cub Swanson at the event.[8] However, Tucker was tabbed as a short notice replacement to face Dan Ige at UFC Fight Night: Edwards vs. Muhammad instead.[9] Swanson faced Giga Chikadze instead.[10]

A bantamweight bout between Merab Dvalishvili and Cody Stamann has been rescheduled for a third time and took place at the event.[11] The pairing was first scheduled to meet in last December at UFC on ESPN: Hermansson vs. Vettori, but Stamann pulled out due to undisclosed reasons and the bout was scrapped.[12] They were then rescheduled for UFC Fight Night: Overeem vs. Volkov in February, but Dvalishvili hadn't recovered from COVID-19 and had to pull out.[13]

A women's strawweight bout between Ji Yeon Kim and Poliana Botelho was scheduled for the preliminary portion of the card.[14] However, Kim pulled out of the fight on March 22 citing injury and was replaced by Mayra Bueno Silva.[15] Botelho then suffered another opponent change as Bueno suffered a back injury in late March.[16] On March 31, Luana Carolina was announced as her new opponent.[17]

Randa Markos was expected to face promotional newcomer Luana Pinheiro in a women's strawweight bout at UFC 260, but had to pull out after testing positive for COVID-19.[18] The pairing was left intact and rescheduled for this event.[19]

T.J. Laramie and Damon Jackson were expected to meet in a featherweight bout at the event.[20] However in late March, Laramie pulled out of the fight due to undisclosed reasons and was replaced by Luke Sanders.[21][22] On April 22, it was Jackson that pulled out due to an injury. Journey Newson, who was expected to face Felipe Colares in a bantamweight bout, also pulled out due to injury. The promotion decided to match Sanders and Corales as a result of those removals.[23]

Augusto Sakai and Shamil Abdurakhimov were expected to meet in a heavyweight bout at the event.[24] However, Abdurakhimov pulled out of the bout due to visa issues, prompting the UFC to book Sakai against Jairzinho Rozenstruik as the headliner at UFC Fight Night 189.[25]

A light heavyweight bout between Ion Cuțelaba and Devin Clark was scheduled for the event.[26] However, Clark pulled out from the event citing an injury and was replaced by Dustin Jacoby.[27]

At the weigh-ins, Luana Carolina and Gabriel Benítez missed weight for their respective bouts. Carolina weighed in 128.5 pounds, 2.5 pounds over the women’s flyweight non-title limit. Her bout proceeded at catchweight and she was fined 20% of her purse which went to Botelho.[28] Benítez weighed in at 150.5 pounds, 4.5 pounds over the featherweight non-title limit. His opponent Jonathan Pearce turned down the fight due to the weight miss and the bout was scrapped.[29]
