In a fight that guarantees to be as chaotic as the build-up, Tony Ferguson and Kevin Lee will end all the talk and see who walks out of Vegas the new interim UFC lightweight champion. This UFC 216 card also has the potential to go down forever in MMA history, as Demetrious Johnson boldly goes where only one MMA fighter has gone before. If Johnson beats Ray Borg, he’ll not only keep his flyweight title, but he’ll beat Anderson Silva’s defense record. This all goes down after two heavyweight beasts Fabricio Werdum and Derrick Lewis fight for contention, in addition to an undercard littered with exciting prospects.
