A UFC event, referred to as both UFC Fight Night 279 and UFC Vegas 119, has taken place. Mitch Raposo, a participant in the event, has given a post-fight interview, during which he discussed dedicating his win to his coach's late father. The event also featured other fighters, including Christian Rodriguez and Murtazali Magomedov, who also gave post-fight interviews, although it is unclear if they were part of the same event as some outlets referenced a different event, UFC 329.
