UFC Boston or UFC 292 is set to take place on August 19 at the TD Garden In Boston, Massachusetts later this year.
The main event and co-main are so far the only confirmed bouts for the night, but the event is already being earmarked as one of the biggest cards of the year.
The PPV will be headlined by two major title fights as Aljamain Sterling completes a quick turn-around from his bout with Henry Cejudo, as he defends the bantamweight title against Sean O'Malley.
The co-main event sees Zhang Weili make her first title defense on her current run with the strawweight title as she looks to conquer the Brazilian contender Amanda Lemos.

Sean O'Malley's coach weighs in on 'Sugar's chances against Aljamain Sterling at UFC 292
Following Aljamain Sterling's split-decision victory over Henry Cejudo earlier this month, Sean O'Malley entered the octagon for an intense face-off against the champion post-fight.
Their bout is now set to headline in Boston on August 19 and O'Malley's coach, Tim Welch, believes they are more than ready. Speaking to ESPN's Brett Okamoto, Welch claimed that 'Sugar' and their team have spent O'Malley's career preparing him for a fighter like 'Funk Master'.
Welch said:
“Like I said, if anybody is going do it, 'Sugar' is gonna be able to do it. His whole career, the gameplay against Sean has been to pressure him and get him on the fence and take him down. His whole career has been that way. In training, we find the best guys we can to try to pressure him, to try to put him in the cage, to try to take him down. And Sean, every time he steps in no fto the cage, he is game. He is in there to win so if anyone can do it, 'Sugar' can do it.”
