After an up-and-down stay at welterweight, Dos Anjos has found new life after dropping back down to lightweight. The former 155-pound king has won back-to-back five-round decisions over Paul Felder and Renato Carneiro. He'll look to improve his win streak to three against Fiziev. Ever the professional, dos Anjos weighed 156 pounds on the dot.
Fiziev enters his first UFC main event with an impressive 11-1 record. "Ataman" bounced back from his first career defeat in 2019 with five straight wins, including fantastic knockouts over Carneiro and Brad Riddell. A decision win over Bobby Green is sandwiched between those two vicious finishes. As if to make a point, the Kyrgyzstan native officially hit the scales at a championship weight of 155 pounds.
UFC on ESPN 39 will air in its entirety on ESPN and ESPN+ on Saturday. Prelims begin at 6 p.m. ET/3 p.m. PT, while the main card kicks off at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT.
