Background[edit]

This event was initially planned to take place at Astana Arena in Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan and would have been the first that the promotion had contested there.[4][5] However, it was announced by UFC president Dana White on April 9 that starting with UFC 249, all future events were indefinitely postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[6]

While not officially announced by the organization, the promotion was also targeting a bantamweight bout between former WSOF Bantamweight Champion and UFC Bantamweight Championship challenger Marlon Moraes and Petr Yan to serve as the original event headliner.[7] The event is still expected to stream entirely on ESPN+ and a women’s flyweight bout between former UFC Women’s Flyweight Championship challenger Jessica Eye and Cynthia Calvillo will serve as the new event headliner.[8]
