Background


The main event was a rematch between former UFC Heavyweight Champion Cain Velasquez and Antônio Silva.[4] In their first encounter at UFC 146 a year earlier, Velasquez defeated Silva via first round TKO.[5]


Alistair Overeem was expected to face Junior dos Santos at the event. However, in early March, Overeem pulled out of the bout citing a leg injury.[6] It was initially announced that the bout would be rescheduled for a future event, later in the summer of this year.[7] Then, on March 9 it was announced that Dos Santos would remain on the card and face Mark Hunt.[8]


Ryan Bader was expected to face Glover Teixeira at the event but withdrew from the bout due to injury in March. He was replaced by James Te Huna[9]


Amir Sadollah was expected to face Stephen Thompson at the event. However, Sadollah pulled out of the bout citing an injury and was replaced by Nah-Shon Burrell.[10]


Gunnar Nelson was expected to face Mike Pyle at the event. However, Nelson pulled out of the bout citing an injury and was replaced by Rick Story.[11]


Dana White announced at the UFC on Fox 7 post-fight press conference that he expects that the winner of the Gray Maynard/TJ Grant fight would get a UFC Lightweight title shot against Benson Henderson.[12]


At the weigh-ins, Khabib Nurmagomedov came in heavy weighing in at 158.5 lb. Nurmagomedov was given two hours to cut to the lightweight maximum of 156 pounds, but he elected instead to surrender a percentage of his fight purse to his opponent Abel Trujillo and the bout was contested at a catchweight.[13]
