Roosevelt Roberts is continuing his MMA journey at UFC on ESPN 3. The up and coming fighter will be taking on Vinc Pichel in an effort to continue on his path to where he wants to go.

The card is being headlined by a tremendous bout by two top heavyweight fighters of UFC. Junior dos Santos is taking on Francis Ngannou. If there was ever a fight with title shot repercussions, this would be it. In the co-main event of the night, a Flyweight fight with title repercussions is also set to take place, as Jussier Formiga will be facing Joseph Benavidez.
