The UFC returns to Philadelphia for the first time in more than seven years on Saturday with UFC on ESPN 2, which takes place at Wells Fargo Arena with a televised card on ESPN following early prelims on UFC Fight Pass. The main event of the card features a lightweight matchup between two of the most dangerous strikers in the division. Perennial contender Edson Barboza (20-6 MMA, 14-6 UFC) will meet former WSOF champ Justin Gaethje (19-2 MMA, 2-2 UFC) in a matchup that from its initial announcement received praise as a potential “Fight of the Year” contender.
