Background


The event was the second that the promotion has contested in Adelaide, following UFC Fight Night: Miocic vs. Hunt in May 2015.[2]


A heavyweight bout between former UFC Heavyweight Champion Junior dos Santos and Tai Tuivasa served as the event headliner.[3]


The Ultimate Fighter: United States vs. United Kingdom lightweight winner Ross Pearson was expected to face Joseph Duffy at the event. However, Pearson announced on November 7 that he was out of the bout due to a broken nose and subsequent surgery to correct the injury.[4] He was replaced by promotional newcomer Damir Ismagulov, but Duffy pulled out of citing a rib injury.[5] Ismagulov then faced fellow newcomer Alex Gorgees.[6]


Ashkan Mokhtarian was scheduled to face promotional newcomer Kai Kara-France at the event. However on November 20, Mokhtarian pulled out of the fight citing injury.[7] He was replaced by Elias Garcia.[8]


Luke Jumeau was scheduled to face Geoff Neal at the event.[9] However, it was reported on November 9, 2018 that Jumeau pulled from the card due to injury, resulting cancellation of the bout by the UFC official.[10]
