There are only two UFC events this month and this is the second one. The UFC heads to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil for a Fight Night card on Fox Sports 1, with welterweight Demian Maia taking on the undefeated Ryan LaFlare in the main event. Josh Koscheck, in potentially his farewell fight, steps up on short notice to face Erick Silva in the co-main event.
