UFC Fight Tonight: Is there a UFC card on Saturday, March 25, 2023?

The world's premier MMA promotion is heading to AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas, for its next fight card UFC Fight Night: Vera vs. Sandhagen (also known as UFC on ESPN 43). The action will go down this Saturday, March 25, with a series of intriguing bouts lined up for the fight fans.

In the main event of UFC Fight Night, No.3-ranked bantamweight contender Marlon Vera will go up against Cory Sandhagen, who sits two spots below him at No.5.

Vera has only lost once in his last six trips to the octagon, suffering a unanimous decision against Jose Aldo back in late 2020. He has rattled off four consecutive wins thereafter, including two finishes, with his latest triumph coming over former champion Dominick Cruz via fourth-round knockout in August. 'Chito' also handed the highly-touted Sean O’Malley the only loss of his professional career when he TKO'd him in the first round in 2020.

Sandhagen, on the other hand, is coming off an impressive technical knockout win over Yadong Song last September to rebound from back-to-back decision losses in 2021.
