Originally scheduled to face former title challenger Paulo Costa, Cannonier is looking to get back into the win column following a loss to former champion Robert Whittaker in 2020. Similarly, Gastelum is looking for a win after facing defeat at the hands of Whittaker in a short notice bout earlier this year.

With the division moving the way it has been since Israel Adesanya claimed the championship, the winner of this fight will put themselves one step closer to contending for the title.
