After undergoing some changes in recent weeks, the latest of which was the departure of Carlos Prates e Geoff neal, the long-awaited card UFC 314 is set. Surrounded by anticipation from the public, the star-studded event takes place this Saturday (12), at the Kaseya Center, in Miami, in the United States, and has as its main attraction the dispute for the featherweight belt (up to 65,7 kg) between Alexander Volkanovsky e Diego lopes.

The main and most recent change to the card was the injury to the welterweight (up to 77,1 kg) Geoff neal, which forced the cancellation of the expected duel against the Brazilian Carlos Prates. While the Brazilian was transferred to the main fight of the UFC Kansas City, against Ian Gary, on April 26, the light heavyweights (up to 93 kg) Nikita Krylov e Dominick reyes ended up being promoted to the main portion of the UFC 314.
