Background

A UFC Heavyweight Championship title unification bout between current champion Francis Ngannou and interim champion Ciryl Gane served as the event headliner.[4]

A UFC Flyweight Championship trilogy bout between current champion Brandon Moreno and former champion Deiveson Figueiredo took place at the event.[5] The pairing first met at UFC 256 on December 12, 2020 which ended in a majority draw (Figueiredo retained the title).[6] Their second meeting took place at UFC 263 on June 12, 2021 where Moreno captured the title by submission in the third round.[7] The rematch was originally expected to take place at UFC 269, but it was moved to this event.[8][9]

A middleweight bout between Jared Cannonier and Derek Brunson was scheduled for the event.[10] However, the pairing was moved to UFC 271 three weeks later.[11]

A women's flyweight bout between Kay Hansen and Jasmine Jasudavicius was scheduled for UFC on ESPN: Kattar vs. Chikadze.[12] However, the pairing was moved to this event due to undisclosed reasons.[13]

The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil 3 middleweight winner Warlley Alves was expected to face Jack Della Maddalena in a welterweight bout.[14] However, Alves pulled out in early January due to undisclosed reasons and he was replaced by promotional newcomer Pete Rodriguez.[15][16]

A women's flyweight between Viviane Araújo and Alexa Grasso was scheduled for the event.[17] However, Araújo was forced to pull out from the event due to injury and the bout was cancelled.[18][19]

A featherweight bout between undefeated prospects Movsar Evloev and Ilia Topuria was scheduled for the event.[20] However, Evloev withdrew from the bout due to undisclosed reasons.[21] He was replaced by Charles Jourdain.[22] In turn, Topuria withdrew from the bout just before the weigh in due to a medical issue from cutting weight and the bout was scrapped.[23]

Poliana Botelho and Ji Yeon Kim were expected to meet in a women's flyweight bout at UFC on ESPN: Reyes vs. Procházka in May 2021, but Kim pulled out due to an injury.[24] They were then rescheduled for this event, but Botelho pulled out instead and the pairing was scrapped.[25][26]

A women's strawweight bout between Vanessa Demopoulos and Silvana Gómez Juárez was initially scheduled for UFC on ESPN: Kattar vs. Chikadze a week earlier, but it was pushed back to this event.[27]

A heavyweight bout between Alexey Oleynik and Greg Hardy was expected to take place at the event.[28] However on January 13, Oleynik withdrew from the event due to undisclosed reasons and was replaced by Sergey Spivak.[29] In turn, just a week before the event Hardy withdrew due to a finger injury and the bout was removed from the event.[30] The pair was moved to UFC 272.[31]

Four-time Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu World Champion Rodolfo Vieira was expected to face Wellington Turman in a middleweight bout at the event.[32] However, Vieira pulled out in the days leading up to the event and the bout was cancelled.[33]
