UFC Fight Night 224 has a main card that begins at 7 p.m. ET and streams on ESPN+. The prelims stream on ESPN+ beginning at 4 p.m. ET.

Main event

In the headliner, women’s strawweights Mackenzie Dern (12-3 MMA, 7-3 UFC) and Angela Hill (15-12 MMA, 10-12 UFC) get top billing just a week after they were supposed to fight at UFC on ABC 4 in Charlotte. Their fight was moved to UFC Fight Night 224 for a hastily created headliner. Jiu-jitsu ace Dern has dropped two of her past three fights on the heels of a four-fight winning streak. She’ll be looking for her first win in 13 months. Hill, one of the busiest fighters on the entire UFC roster, has back-to-back wins over Loopy Godinez and Emily Ducote – who coincidentally fight each other on Saturday’s main card.

In the co-feature, Anthony Hernandez (10-2 MMA, 4-2 UFC) takes on Edmen Shahbazyan (12-3 MMA, 5-3 UFC) at middleweight. Hernandez is more than a 3-1 favorite at the betting window and comes in on a three-fight winning streak that started with a bonus-winning upset submission of Rodolfo Vieira. Shahbazyan got his first win in more than three years this past December when he put away Dalcha Lungiambula with a flying knee at UFC 282 to win a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus.
