In the main fight of the night, Rafael dos Anjos makes his second defense of the lightweight title against dangerous challenger Eddie Alvarez. The Brazilian, who as champion has already dispatched Donald Cerrone in December last year, he wants to eliminate yet another rival, with an eye on a long reign in the under-70 kg division.
In addition to Rafael, the card will feature another legion of Brazilians: Alberto Miná, Dileno Lopes, Peter Munhoz, Felipe Sertanejo, Gilbert Durinho, Reginaldo Vieira e Vincent Luque. Another highlight is the second most important fight of the night, between the popular heavyweight Roy Nelson and the rising fighter Derrick Lewis.

The reveal of the weights, plus the official faces, will be broadcast Live No. SUPER FIGHTS this Wednesday, starting at 20 pm according to official Brasília time. Don't miss it!
