The main event will be the Bantamweight fight between Sean O'Malley and Marlon Vera, with the former looking to defend the championship belt held since that unforgettable encounter with Aljamain Sterling last summer.

However, Brits will also be eager to see homegrown talent Michael 'Venom' Page, who told BBC Sport that he was achieving his "original goal" by finally competing in the UFC after years spent in kickboxing.

Speaking about the motives behind his debut, he added: "Everyone chases the shiny stuff, they want titles and so on so forth. But I'm a legacy guy.

"I don't like to follow the crowd which I feel like is why I fight the way I fight. So my legacy might not be the conventional legacy, my legacy might be purely based on the style I brought to the UFC and just mixed martial arts in general.

"I've been seeing more youngsters and people with my style and I feel like I've delivered that somewhat."
