Background
For the event, the Apex debuted a significant renovation that expanded the facility's seating capacity.[3]
A lightweight bout between former KSW Featherweight and Lightweight Champion Mateusz Gamrot and Quillan Salkilld headlined the event.[2]
A women's strawweight bout between former UFC Women's Strawweight Championship challenger Amanda Lemos and Denise Gomes was scheduled for the event.[4] However, for undisclosed reasons, Gomes had to withdraw and was replaced by Alexia Thainara.[5]
A middleweight bout between Eric McConico and undefeated prospect Donte Johnson was scheduled for the event.[2] However, for undisclosed reasons, the bout was shifted to one week later at UFC 330.[6]
A featherweight bout between Miles Johns and promotional newcomer Jessie Rosas was scheduled for the event.[7] However, Rosas was removed from the bout just hours before weigh-ins after a UFC doctor did not clear him to compete due to a wound on his forehead, and he was replaced by Gianni Vázquez, rejoining the promotion after being released earlier in the year.[8][9]
