UFC Fight Night card: Dominick Cruz vs Marlon Vera and all bouts this weekend

Dominick Cruz and Marlon Vera will go head to head in a bantamweight clash this weekend, as the pair headline Saturday’s UFC Fight Night event.

Cruz is a former two-time champion in the division, who took a near-four-year hiatus between 2016 and 2020 and is 2-1 since returning to mixed martial arts.

Most recently the American, 36, outpointed Pedro Munhoz in December to earn a second straight victory, while Vera is on a three-fight win streak.

The Ecuadoran, 29, secured a stunning knockout of Frankie Edgar last year, a result sandwiched between decision wins against Rob Font and Davey Grant.
