Background

The event will mark the promotion's fourth visit to San Antonio and first since UFC on ESPN: Vera vs. Sandhagen in March 2023. [1]

It will also be the third annual "Noche UFC" event commemorating Mexico's independence day, following September 2023's UFC Fight Night: Grasso vs. Shevchenko 2 and September 2024's UFC 306. It was originally expected to take place in Guadalajara, Mexico and serve as UFC 320, but it was moved to San Antonio (and shifted to a Fight Night card) due to the construction of Arena Guadalajara being stalled.
