The next UFC event is set for June 3rd at the Jeunesse Arena in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Featherweight champion Jose Aldo fights interim champ Max Holloway in a title unification bout. The co-main event sees recent strawweight title challengers Claudia Gadelha and Karolina Kowalkiewicz go toe-to-toe. Also on the main card is Vitor Belfort’s UFC farewell bout will be against Nate Marquardt, while Paulo Borrachinha fights Oluwale Bamgbose, and "welterweight prospect" (you know this will be said) Erick Silva opens the PPV broadcast against Yancy Medeiros.

Former WSOF bantamweight champion Marlon Moraes makes his Octagon debut against Raphael Assuncao in the featured FS1 prelim.
