On the heels of UFC 202 the leader in mixed martial arts heads to Vancouver, British Columbia for a welterweight showdown between two of the top contenders at 170 pounds.
No. 4 contender Demian Maia (23-6) meets No. 5 Carlos Condit (30-9).
Maia is riding a five-fight win streak into the main event on Saturday, and a win over Condit would make his resume the most accomplished of the list of contenders for the welterweight strap. The Brazilian is seeking his first title shot since challenging Anderson Silva at UFC 112 more than six years ago.
Condit comes off a failed title bid at UFC 195. He dropped a split decision to then-champion Robbie Lawler. A Condit victory moves him back into position to lay claim to a future title shot.
The newly minted UFC welterweight champion, Tyron Woodley, will have his eyes set on this matchup.
Will Condit end Maia's hopes and dreams, or will Maia continue his dominance with a watermark victory?
