The MMA Vivisection is coming at you a little late for a UFC Boston card that's a little late as well. This Sunday, the UFC is bringing 13 fights to you, with 8 on FS1 and 5 on Fight Pass, including a bantamweight title fight between TJ Dillashaw and Dominick Cruz. It's the battle of quick stepping champions, as Cruz takes just his second fight in just over 4 years and his first since defeating Takeya Mizugaki back in 2014. In the co-main event, top shelf lightweights Anthony Pettis and Eddie Alvarez square off in a bout that could name a new title contender and bring Pettis one step closer to regaining his status as the top man at 155 lbs. Beyond that, it's just a fun card with a lot of action fights and a lot of newcomers. So, check it out.
