Summary

Saturday, Emmett and Vallejos square off in the main event of UFC Vegas 114, the UFC’s return to the APEX following UFC 326. It’s Emmett’s first fight since losing to Youssef Zalal at UFC 320, and it presents a crossroads moment for the longtime veteran’s career. With a win, Emmett is back in the mix at 145 pounds, a loss marks five defeats in six outings, and could mark the end of the 41-year-olds UFC tenure. Vallejos, meanwhile, is the new prospect to watch at 145 and poised to make a meteoric rise up the rankings if he can beat Emmett. Ahead of UFC Vegas 114, MMA Fighting’s Alexander K. Lee and Jed Meshew preview Saturday’s event and discuss if this is the last ride for Emmett in the UFC. Additionally, Lee and Meshew discuss the co-main event bout between Gillian Robertson and Amanda Lemos, the other fights to watch on the undercard, react to the UFC White House fights and other recent fight announcements, answer fan questions, and more.
