UFC Vegas 68

The UFC is back to regular order with five straight weekends of MMA action from the combat sports leader on tap, beginning with the least inspiring fight night offering of the bunch. One unique element of this card is the conclusion of the “Road to UFC” development pipeline for Asian mixed martial arts talent. The pair of eight fighters unfamiliar to the UFC television audience are competing in the finals of a tournament bracket, having earned the right to compete for a UFC contract by defeating two other men on the show. The show was supposed to take place in South Korea, and the card headlined by the Korean Zombie, but a main event cancellation caused the promotion to bail to the comforts of the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada and the reliable services of the “Black Beast” Derrick Lewis as the event headliner.
