A women's strawweight bout between Marina Rodriguez and Amanda Lemos was originally expected to take place at UFC 280, but was postponed to this event for unknown reasons.[4] After the original main event was cancelled, they were promoted to the headliner spot.[5]
A women's flyweight bout between Miranda Maverick and Shanna Young is scheduled for the event.[6] The pair was previously scheduled for UFC 278, but the bout was cancelled on the day of the weigh-ins as Young was hospitalized due to weight cut issues.[7]
Neil Magny and Daniel Rodriguez were scheduled to meet in a welterweight bout at UFC Fight Night: Grasso vs. Araújo in October 15, but Rodriguez withdrew due to an elbow infection.[8] They were then rescheduled for this event.[9]
