Machida looks to reclaim some of his glory after suffering three straight losses, his toughest skid to date, while Anders tries to pick up the biggest win of his young mixed martial arts (MMA) career by knocking off “The Dragon.”

Meanwhile, John Dodson will look to get back into the win column when he faces off against Pedro Munhoz in Bantamweight action, while Valentina Shevchenko returns to face off against undefeated (8-0) prospect Priscila Cachoeira.
