Jared Cannonier has become the forgotten man in the #UFC middleweight title picture — despite winning two straight and four of five — as he returns to the octagon for the first time in a year in the main event of #UFCLouisville in a fiveround matchup against Nassourdine Imavov. If Cannonier can pick up another win, is he in the championship conversation in the loaded 185pound division?
Ahead of Saturday's Fight Night event, #MMA Fighting's Mike Heck, Jed Meshew, and Alexander K. Lee preview the promotion's return to Derby City, along with the Cannonier vs. Imavov headliner and the stakes attached to it. Additionally, they'll discuss Dominick Reyes' return after a long layoff to face Dustin Jacoby in the comain event, 19yearold Raul Rosas Jr. looking to make it two straight when he meets Ricky Turcios, the quality of the event as a whole, and much more.
Show goes LIVE Friday at 12:15 p.m. ET / 9:15 a.m. PT.
