On Saturday night, the UFC will return to our screens with the under-the-radar UFC Vegas 13 card out of the Apex facility.

Thiago Santos, UFC Vegas 13

The card, which will air on ESPN+, will be headlined by a light heavyweight scrap between former title challengers Glover Teixeira and Thiago Santos. While the next crack at UFC light heavyweight champion Jan Blachowicz is expected to go to UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya, Teixeira and Santos are both optimistic they can jump the line with impressive victories on Saturday night.

The UFC Vegas 13 card will be co-headlined by a clash of heavyweights, as rising Canadian contender Tanner Boser looks for the biggest win of his career against the promotion’s former heavyweight champion, Andrei Arlovski. Other highlights of the card include a dynamite strawweight scrap between Claudia Gadelha and Yan Xiaonan and a clash of talented middleweights as Ian Heinisch takes on Brendan Allen.
