UFC Fight Night 86 is scheduled for Sunday. The rare Sunday show marks the UFC's first visit to Croatia.
Headlining the event is a heavyweight contest between former champion Junior Dos Santos and emerging challenger Ben Rothwell. Dos Santos is looking to rebound from a stoppage loss to Alistair Overeem, while Rothwell enters the match riding a four-fight winning streak.
