UFC Fight Night 211 pre-event facts: 45-year-old Aleksei Oleinik goes for submission record

The UFC kicks off a tame October schedule Saturday with UFC Fight Night 211, which takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas and streams on ESPN+.

A card relatively thin on ranked names features an important fight in the main event. Mackenzie Dern (12-2 MMA, 7-2 UFC) looks to make good on her second headlining opportunity and continue climbing toward a title shot. In her way, though, is dangerous Chinese standout Yan Xiaonan (13-3 MMA, 6-2 UFC), who gets a five-round fight for the first time in the UFC and will look to make the most of it.
