Watch UFC 173 full video preview for 'Barao vs. Dillashaw' PPV on May 24 in Las Vegas (Extended)

Come for the light heavyweight co-main event, stay for the bantamweight headliner.

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is less than two weeks away from its annual Memorial Day Weekend pay-per-view (PPV) extravaganza, which is set to go down inside MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, on May 24, 2014.

That means ZUFFA is taking this weekend off, if you wanted to plunk down some coin on the Bellator 120 PPV.

UFC 173: "Barao vs. Dillashaw" will feature a re-worked main event that pits reigning bantamweight champion Renan Barao opposite 135-pound upstart TJ Dillashaw. In the co-main event, Daniel Cormier will try to inch his way closer to a light heavyweight title shot by turning away the resurgent Dan Henderson, who like "DC," wants to get his crack at the division crown.

See the extended video preview in the embedded player above.

Elsewhere on the card, Robbie Lawler will bang it out with Jake Ellenberger for the right to stay alive in the 170-pound title chase, while Francisco Rivera and Takeya Mizugaki hook 'em up in bantamweight action. "Prelim" fights will air on FOX Sports 1 and Fight Pass.
