The world's premier MMA promotion is returning to the Apex Center in Enterprise, Nevada, for its upcoming fight card dubbed UFC Fight Night: Vettori vs. Cannonier (also known as UFC Vegas 75). The action is set to go down this Saturday, June 17, with a series of exciting matchups lined up for the fight fans.

The Fight Night card will be headlined by a battle of top middleweight contenders as the No.3-ranked Marvin Vettori squares off against Jared Cannonier, who is positioned right below the Italian at No.4.

After compiling a five-fight win streak inside the octagon, Marvin Vettori finds himself 2-2 in his last four outings. 'The Italian Dream' most recently outpointed Roman Dolidze in March and is seeking his second consecutive win this Saturday.

Arman Tsarukyan will also feature on the UFC Fight Night: Vettori vs. Cannonier card as he goes up against Joaquim Silva in the night's co-main event.

Tsarukyan edged out Damir Ismagulov last time out in December, rebounding from his razor-close decision loss to Mateusz Gamrot earlier that year. 'Ahalkalakets' was involved in a high-paced, back-and-forth battle with 'Gamer' in June, where he suffered his career's second defeat.

Featherweight prospect Pat Sabatini will also return to action this Saturday as he hopes to get back into the win column after having his six-fight win streak snapped last time out in September. The Pennsylvania native will take on Lucas Almeida, who is coming off back-to-back finishes.

Also, on the main card, Armen Petrosyan will take on Christian Leroy Duncan in a battle of middleweights. The event will also feature a lightweight matchup between Manuel Torres and Nikolas Motta. The night's potential main-card opener will see Raoni Barcelos go up against Miles Johns in a bantamweight contest.
