It’s back to the UFC’s Apex facility in Las Vegas this Saturday night with a Fight Night card headlined by a bantamweight bout between American Frankie Edgar and Brazil’s Pedro Munhoz. The main card will begin at 8 p.m. ET and is available in the United States on ESPN and ESPN+.
Edgar-Munhoz has been scheduled/moved around a few times, including once because Munhoz tested positive for COVID-19. It was most recently scheduled for last weekend’s UFC 252, but then the organization decided to make it the main event of this card.
The 38-year-old Edgar (23-8) has long been a fan favorite who won the UFC’s lightweight title way back in April 2010 over BJ Penn. “The Answer” defended it twice before losing back-to-back bouts to Benson Henderson. Edgar then moved to featherweight and lost a title fight to Jose Aldo. Edgar got another shot at Aldo for the belt at UFC 200 and lost again.
