Steve Erceg (12-4 MMA, 3-3 UFC) takes on Alex Perez (25-9 MMA, 7-5 UFC) at a UFC Fight Night event on Aug. 9 from the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, promotion officials announced Sunday night.

The UFC Vegas 107 main event between women's flyweight contenders Erin Blanchfield and Maycee Barber was shockingly cancelled moments before the fight was scheduled to begin.

Blanchfield comes into the event looking to make it back-to-back wins, having defeated Rose Namajunas by unanimous decision on Fight Night back in November 2024. It was her first fight since losing in the UFC for the first time, falling to Manon Fiorot in the main event of Fight Night in March of last year.

The UFC was back on our screens Saturday night, and while it may not have been a huge card, it's one we're going to be talking about for quite some time. That's thanks to the last-minute drama that surrounded the main event.

Elmwood Park, N.J.’s own Blanchfield has a chance to earn a flyweight title shot with a win Saturday. The pressure-oriented fighter is always down to strike with her opponent, even if the path of least resistance might be grappling.

Two former UFC fighters have filed antitrust lawsuits against the mixed-martial arts behemoth. Phil Davis and Mikhail Cirkunovs allege that the UFC operates as a monopoly that restricts their ability to maximize earnings.
