Believe it or not, there is in fact a UFC event this weekend. The promotion has historically hosted a big pay-per-view on Memorial Day weekend, but this year we’re going to have to settle for “UFC Fight Night 88: Almeida vs. Garbrandt.”
Sunday’s featured attraction showcases a pair of fast-rising bantamweights vying for the same seat in
Thomas Almeida (pictured) and Cody Garbrandt.
Almeida is a -175 odds-on favorite to collect his 21 professional victory in as many outings. Garbrandt, meanwhile, checks in closely behind as a +145 underdog to bump his record to a perfect 9-0.
Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada hosts the festivities. Fox Sports 1 broadcasts the main card live starting at 9PM ET/6PM PT.
