Highly touched flyweight Amir Albazi and Tatsuro Taira Las Vegas will have the main event for UFC Fight Night on 2 August at UFC Apex.

Albazi, a 31-year-old Iraq-native with 17-2 MMA records, is at number 3 in the official list of UFC flyweight contenders. He returns to the Octagon for the first time after losing a unanimous decision for Brandon Moreno on 2 November.

Taira, a 25-year-old native of Okinawa, Japan, recorded a 16–1 MMA in this bout. He ranks fifth in the list of official contenders, but that too, to prove something after losing a divided decision to Brandon Royval on 12 October.

There are six more quarrels for the main card, which starts from ET at 9 pm. The next most complicated fight number 10-ranked Banomvet Karol Rosa beaten against number 12 Nora Cornole.

Rosa (18–7), a native of Brazil, last appeared in the Octagon on 18 January as part of the UFC 311 card, when Alin Peres handled him in a unanimous decision.

Cornole (9–2) has a history of winning quickly and violently. The native of France presented Haley Kovan at 1:52 of the second round in his most recent battle on 12 April. But one of his wins is done by knockout or submission.

There are two undefeated fighters on the card. Andre Lima (11–0) of Brazil takes Conscience Felips Buns (14–7) in flyweight action, while American Middleweight Tares Finni (11–0) fought Russia’s Azmat Bekov (10–2).
