UFC Fight Night: Dos Anjos vs. Alvarez (also known as UFC Fight Night 90) is an upcoming mixed martial arts event to be held on July 7, 2016 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.[1]

Background

The event will be the first of three events in as many days in Las Vegas, culminating with UFC 200. It also marks the second North American card to air live exclusively on their subscription-based digital network, UFC Fight Pass, and will also be the first men's championship fight to be broadcast over that medium.[1]

The event is expected to be headlined by a UFC Lightweight Championship bout between current champion Rafael dos Anjos and former two-time Bellator Lightweight Champion Eddie Alvarez.[1]

A lightweight bout between John Makdessi and Mehdi Baghdad, originally scheduled for UFC 199, was moved to this event possibly to bolster the card.[2]
