The UFC returns to its APEX facility in Las Vegas to conclude a series of high-octane events for the month of May. With the blockbuster UFC 262 pay-per-view in the history books, the promotion presents another solid card for this weekend's UFC Vegas 27 event.
The main event promises to be an explosive contest as Rob Font locks horns with former bantamweight champion Cody Garbrandt. The winner of this fight will find themselves close to earning a shot at the 135lbs title currently held by Aljamain Sterling.
There's a lot of hype surrounding the main event because the stakes are high and both fighters happen to be dangerous knockout artists inside the octagon. Out of the eight fights he's won in the UFC, Font finished his opponents on six occasions and five out of those six wins came via knockout. This speaks volumes about his striking abilities.

However, Garbrandt has the experience of fighting under the spotlight, and with four knockout victories in the bantamweight division, he's breathing down Font's neck. With the opportunity of a potential title shot for the winner, this one promises to be a firefight to watch out for.
