In the main event, heavyweight prospect Derrick Lewis will fight his toughest opponent to date when he fights longtime contender Travis Browne.
The main card in Halifax opens with one of the most exciting lightweights in the UFC as Paul Felder fights Alessandro Ricci.
Felder landed a hard punch at the start of the fight to briefly wobble Ricci. Neither fighter was afraid to trade punches with the other. Both Felder and Ricci landed hard punches throughout the first round. Felder landed a spinning back elbow, but Ricci didn’t flinch. At the end of the round, Felder stormed Ricci to finish the fight by TKO.
