Live coverage begins Friday with UFC Live presented by DraftKings Sportsbook: Cannonier vs. Strickland at 4:30 p.m. ET on ESPNews, providing fans with exclusive insights and views heading into Fight Night.

The main event features a clash between middleweight standouts as No. 3 Jared Cannonier (15-6) meets No.7 Sean Strickland (25-4). Former middleweight title challenger Cannonier returns to the Octagon aiming to make a statement to the division and cement his position in the rankings.

The co-main is a lightweight bout between Arman Tsarukyan (18-3) and Damir Ismagulov (24-1). Tsarukyan, who has established himself as one of the top prospects on the UFC roster, looks to end the year on a high note and begin his run for title contention. Ismagulov seeks his 20^th consecutive victory in the biggest fight of his career.

Brendan Fitzgerald will call the action, joined by Paul Felder and two-time UFC Bantamweight Champion Dominick Cruz. Charly Arnolt will handle reporting duties. Troy Santiago and Marlon Chito Vera will provide all coverage in Spanish.
