While not the fight that the Ultimate Fighting Championship originally set as the main event of UFC Fight Night 202, fight fans are excited about seeing Islam Makhachev vs. Bobby Green in just one day now that both main eventers have made their 160-pound catchweight. The weigh-ins were largely uneventful, as only Zhu Rong missed weight, coming in four pounds over the lightweight limit for his bout against Ignacio Bahamondes.

Originally set to face Beneil Dariush, Makhachev (21-1) was looking to be propelled into title contention with a win. Now, the Dagestani contender will look to keep his win streak alive against a savvy mixed martial arts veteran. Makhachev has won his last nine outings, with the most notable victories coming over Dan Hooker, Thiago Moises and Gleison Tibau. The lightweight looked prepared as he stepped on the scale for his second UFC main event, and he weighed 160 pounds on the dot.

Green (29-12-1) is riding a two-fight win streak and is coming off a unanimous decision victory over Nasrat Haqparast earlier this month. "King" rebounded from a two-fight losing streak by knocking out Al Iaquinta late last year, and has won five of his last seven inside the Octagon. Green officially weighed 158 pounds for his first UFC main event.

UFC Fight Night 202 will stream in its entirety on ESPN+ with the prelims beginning at 4 p.m. ET/1 p.m. PT, and the main card commencing at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT.
