UFC Fight Night Presented by Modelo: Santos vs. Hill will be broadcast live from UFC APEX in Las Vegas, Nevada this Saturday, August 6, on ESPN, ESPN Deportes and ESPN+ (English and Spanish), with the main card at 10pm ET / 7pm PT and Prelims at 7 noon ET / 4 pm PT. Live coverage begins Friday with UFC Live presented by DraftKings Sportsbook: Santos vs. Hill at 5 PM ET / 2 PM PT on ESPNEWS, providing fans with exclusive insight and footage heading into Fight Night.

The main event features a battle between the lightweights as No. 6 Thiago Santos (22-10) takes on No. 10 Jamahal Hill (10-1). Santos is facing a must-win situation as he looks to deliver another finish and get back into the title picture. Hill is looking to put on a better run in the heavyweight division and prove that a new title challenger is on the horizon.

The co-host features a featherweight bout between No. 6 Vicente Luque (21-8) and No. 13 Geoff Neal (14-4). Luque is looking to bounce back from a decision loss earlier this year and looks to defend his place in the rankings. Neal is coming off a big win over Santiago Ponzinibbio at UFC 269 that got him back on track as he looks to climb the rankings again.

Also on the card, the two winners — a heavyweight and a flyweight — of Ultimate Warrior: Team Peña vs. Team Nunes will be crowned and win a UFC contract:

  • The heavyweight final features Team Peña’s top two picks, Mohammed Usman (8-2) and Zac Pauga (6-0). Usman looks set to join his brother, UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman, on the roster with a big win, while Pauga aims to keep his undefeated record intact and become the first fighter that eliminates Usman.
  • It’s Team Nunes vs. Team Peña in the flyweight final as Brogan Walker (8-2) takes on Juliana Miller (3-1) in a battle that will reveal the sixth woman to win the title The last warrior. Walker seeks her biggest win yet by relying on her experience and all-around ability, while Miller wants to continue to defy the odds and add another performance to her record.

Brendan Fitzgerald will call the action along with analysts and Paul Felder and UFC Hall of Famer Michael Bisping. Megan Olivi will handle reporting duties. Troy Santiago and Santiago Ponzinibbio will handle all coverage in Spanish.
