Summary

It’s a battle of teammates as the UFC returns to the Meta APEX this weekend. On Saturday, Renato Moicano and Chris Duncan face off in the main event of UFC Vegas 115, with a lightweight ranking on the line. Moicano and Duncan are very familiar with each other, with both men training out of American Top Team, and even sharing a sauna together in preparation for this weekend’s event, so the question remains, what kind of fight can we expect from these two come Saturday? Ahead of UFC Vegas 115, MMA Fighting’s Jed Meshew and Alexander K. Lee preview Saturday’s main event matchup between Moicano and Duncan. Additionally, Meshew and Lee debate if this is the worst UFC event of all time (on paper), break down the co-main event bout between Virna Jandiroba and Tabatha Ricci, highlight any bright spots on the undercard, answer fan questions, and more.
