When does UFC Fight Night start in the UK and US tonight?

Sean Strickland and Abus Magomedov will face off in a middleweight contenders meeting tonight, while the duo will face off in the main event of UFC Fight Night.

The 32-year-old American Strickland is chasing back-to-back wins after he beat Nasuruddin Imamov on points in January after two consecutive defeats last year.

Meanwhile, German-Russian Magomedov, also 32, arrived in Las Vegas after a string of three straight wins, all by stoppages.

Ranked seventh in the middleweight rankings as he looks to re-enter title contention, Strickland risks his top-10 status here as he faces an unranked opponent in Magomedov.
