The UFC heads to the Arena CDMX in Mexico City, Mexico today (March 29) for a UFC Fight Night event featuring a two-time champion and a former flyweight title challenger.

The main event will see Steve Erceg attempt to snap the first two-fight skid of his career when he meets two-time titleholder Brandon Moreno, who is seeking back-to-back wins after handing Amir Albazi his first UFC loss in November.

The night’s co-main event is a lightweight bout between longtime UFC veteran Drew Dober and Manuel Torres. “El Loco” began his UFC career with three first-round finishes but was stopped in his last outing at UFC 306, while Dober is looking to get back on track after losses to Renato Moicano and Jean Silva.
