Description
A featherweight bout between former UFC Featherweight Championship challenger Brian Ortega and The Ultimate Fighter: Latin America featherweight winner Yair Rodríguez is expected to headline this event.

A flyweight bout between former UFC Flyweight Championship challenger Alex Perez and Askar Askarov was expected to take place at the event. The pair was previously scheduled to meet at UFC on ESPN: Hall vs. Strickland in July 2021, but Askarov pulled out citing injury. Askarov pulled out once again in early June due to undisclosed reasons and Perez was rescheduled against Alexandre Pantoja at UFC 277.

A women’s strawweight bout between former UFC Women's Strawweight Championship challenger and inaugural Invicta FC Atomweight Champion Jessica Penne and former Invicta FC Strawweight Champion Brianna Fortino was expected to take place at the event. However, Fortino withdrew in early June for unknown reasons and was replaced by another former Invicta FC Strawweight Champion in Emily Ducote.

A women's flyweight bout between former Strikeforce and UFC Women's Bantamweight Champion Miesha Tate and former Invicta FC Bantamweight Champion (also former UFC Women's Flyweight Championship challenger) Lauren Murphy was originally expected for UFC on ESPN: Błachowicz vs. Rakić but was then shifted to UFC 276 for unknown reasons. In turn, a week before that event, Murphy pulled out after she tested positive for COVID-19. They were then rescheduled for this event.

A couple of featherweight bouts featuring Bill Algeo vs. Billy Quarantillo and Herbert Burns vs. Khusein Askhabov were scheduled for this event. However, after both Quarantillo and Askhabov pulled out due to injury, Burns and Algeo were booked against each other.

Philip Rowe and Abubakar Nurmagomedov were expected to meet in a welterweight contest. However, the pairing was cancelled due to complications on both sides. Rowe has been forced to withdraw due to an injury, while Nurmagomedov is dealing with visa issues.
