International Fight Week is back, and the week’s featured event has a lineup which lives up to its billing as one of the biggest on the calendar every year. UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones , who has been been busier than seemingly the entire roster of men’s champions recently, competes for the third time in just over six months in the main event of UFC 239. Jones (24-1 MMA, 18-1 UFC) defends his belt against red-hot Thiago Santos (21-6 MMA, 13-5 UFC) In the co-feature bout, champ-champ Amanda Nunes puts her bantamweight belt on the line against former titleholder Holly Holm , who will attempt to become the first woman in UFC history ever to regain a belt she once held. And this isn’t one of those cards where there’s the top fights and little else. There’s something interesting for everyone on Saturday night, so let’s take a look at some key storylines going into the show. UFC 239 takes place at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas
