The fight headlines a six-fight main card that will be held on Saturday, August 13 at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN and ESPN+. There are also six fights scheduled for the preliminary card that will start at 4 p.m. ET, also airing on ESPN and ESPN+.
Cruz (24-3), considered one of the greatest UFC fighters ever, is a former two-time bantamweight champion. The future Hall of Famer returned to the octagon in 2020 after a crazy string of injuries kept him out for over three years. Cruz lost to then-champion Henry Cejudo in his quest to become a three-time champion. Since then Cruz has stayed healthy and gotten decision wins against Casey Kenney and Pedro Munhoz.
