UFC Fight Tonight: Is there a UFC card on Saturday, April 27, 2024?

The UFC is headed back to its Apex facility in Enterprise, Nevada, on April 27, 2024, for UFC Fight Night: Nicolau vs. Perez (also known as UFC Vegas 91 and UFC on ESPN 55).

In the main event of UFC Vegas 91, No.5-ranked flyweight contender Matheus Nicolau will go up against Alex Perez, who is positioned three spots below the Brazilian at No.8.

Matheus Nicolau is coming off a vicious first-round knockout loss to Brandon Royval last time out in April 2023. The defeat snapped his six-fight win streak. Nicolau will be determined to get back into the win column when he faces a struggling opponent on Saturday's card.

Alex Perez, on the other hand, has dropped three consecutive fights, including back-to-back first-round submission defeats to Deiveson Figueiredo and Alexandre Pantoja, followed by a unanimous decision loss to undefeated standout Muhammad Mokaev last month.

The Californian will hope to get the winning engine running as he makes a quick turnaround for this matchup on Saturday.
