Look at how stacked this UFC Vegas 17 card is. On December 19 th in the main event of UFC Vegas 17, welterweight contender Leon Edwards looks to extend his winning streak to nine when he takes on quick increasing competitor Khamzat Chimaev, who’s actually the wagering favorite for this one.
The remainder of the card (beyond the Greg Hardy vs. Marcin Tybura battle, which could be a rough watch) is exceptional. Stephen Thompson vs. Geoff Neal is the co-main occasion, while Marlon Moraes battles Rob Font, Misha Cirkunov squares off with Ryan Spann, and Jose freaking Aldo begins this Fight Night versus Marlon Vera.
Oh, and the prelims? Alexandre Pantoja vs. Manel Kape is a big flyweight battle and it isn’t even the featured bout. That honor comes from Khaos Williams and Michel Pereira, who are primed for great deals of violence.
