--- UFC Fight Night 197: Holloway vs. Rodríguez (also known as UFC Vegas 42) is an upcoming mixed martial arts event produced by the Ultimate Fighting Championship that will take place on November 13, 2021 at the UFC Apex facility in Enterprise, Nevada, part of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Area, United States. Fight card Main card (ESPN+) Featherweight Max Holloway vs. Yair Rodríguez Heavyweight Ben Rothwell vs. Marcos Rogério de Lima Women's Featherweight Felicia Spencer vs. Leah Letson Bantamweight Song Yadong vs. Julio Arce Welterweight Miguel Baeza vs. Khaos Williams Preliminary card (ESPN+) Lightweight Thiago Moisés vs. Joel Álvarez Women's Flyweight Cynthia Calvillo vs. Andrea Lee Featherweight Sean Woodson vs. Collin Anglin Women's Flyweight Cortney Casey vs. Liana Jojua Lightweight Marc Diakiese vs. Rafael Alves Light Heavyweight Kennedy Nzechukwu vs. Da Un Jung Background On October 19, it was announced that the UFC sent a memo to fighters and their staff regarding policy changes to U.S. international travel requirements. Starting on November 8, foreign individuals looking to travel to the United States will need to be fully vaccinated with, and provide proof of, one of seven World Health Organization approved vaccines. They will also need a negative COVID-19 test from a 72-hour period prior to travel. The policy also applies to those crossing from Canada or Mexico, or those coming by ship. This will be the first event under such requirement. A bout between former UFC Featherweight Champion Max Holloway and The Ultimate Fighter: Latin America featherweight winner Yair Rodríguez is expected to serve as the event headliner. The pairing was previously scheduled to headline UFC on ESPN: Makhachev vs. Moisés, but Holloway was pulled from the bout during the weeks leading up to that event due to injury. A light heavyweight bout between Kennedy Nzechukwu and Da Un Jung was originally expected to take place at UFC Fight Night: Ladd vs. Dumont, but it was pushed back to this event due to unknown reasons. A women's flyweight bout between former UFC Women's Flyweight Championship challenger Jessica Eye and Andrea Lee was scheduled for the event. However, Eye pulled out of the bout in mid-October citing illness and was replaced by Cynthia Calvillo. Two middleweight bouts between Kevin Holland and Kyle Daukaus, as well as Eryk Anders and Roman Dolidze were scheduled for the event. However, Holland withdrew from his bout due to injury, and Anders withdrew from the event for undisclosed reasons. Daukaus and Dolidze were then scheduled to face each other instead. In turn, the bout was scrapped due to COVID-19 protocols related to Dolidze’s camp. A lightweight bout between Marc Diakiese and Rafael Alves was rescheduled for the event. The pair was previously expected to meet at UFC Fight Night: Brunson vs. Till, but Alves pulled out of the fight in mid-August due to undisclosed reasons and the bout was scrapped. A featherweight bout between Lando Vannata and Tucker Lutz was expected to take place at this event. However, Lutz was pulled from the bout and instead scheduled to face Pat Sabatini at UFC Fight Night: Vieira vs. Tate. Former interim UFC Light Heavyweight Championship challenger Ovince Saint Preux was expected to face Philipe Lins in a light heavyweight bout at the event. In turn, Saint Preux withdrew from the fight for undisclosed reasons and the bout was cancelled. A light heavyweight bout between Danilo Marques and Jailton Almeida was scheduled for this event. However Danilo required surgery so the bout was rescheduled for UFC Fight Night 201. Nov 11 - Updated fight card & background |
