On Saturday, Nov. 28, the UFC hosted its 18th broadcast on ESPN from the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The event once again featured no fans in attendance due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The event was slated to be headlined by heavyweight contender Curtis Blaydes and former title challenger Derrick Lewis. However, Blaydes tested positive for COVID-19 and the bout was scrapped just before weigh-ins began.
As a result of the change, the light heavyweight match-up between former title challenger Anthony Smith and Devin Clark moved into the night’s top billing.
The event kicked off with a preliminary-card stream on ESPN+ at 8 p.m. ET. The night’s main card followed at 10 p.m. ET on ESPN.
