The full card for the upcoming UFC Fight Night event headlined by flyweights Matheus Nicolau and Manel Kape has now been confirmed.
The event takes place on April 6 at the UFC APEX in Las Vegas, with Nicolau clashing against Kape in a five-round rematch that serves as the main event. Nicolau defeated Kape the first time around in a razor-close decision, and now they’ll run it back with the winner inching closer to title contention in the 125-pound division.
The co-main event features light heavyweight competitor Ryan Spann making his return to action against self-proclaimed Anthony Smith lookalike, Bogdan Guskov. After falling in his octagon debut, Guskov bounced back with an impressive knockout of Zac Pauga in February, but he’ll get a decided step up in competition for his fight with Spann, who holds a 7-4 record in the UFC.
Ariane Lipski will also make her return for a fight against Karine Silva in the women’s flyweight division, while veteran welterweight Tim Means takes on Uros Medic.
Joel Alvarez looks for back-to-back wins when he faces Mateusz Rebecki, and submission specialist Rani Yahya clashes with Victor Henry in a bantamweight bout.
