UFC is returning to action this Sunday as welterweight contenders Vicente Luque (21–7–1) and Belal Muhammad (20–3, 1NC) lock horns in a rematch which will serve as the main event of UFC Vegas 51 set to take place at the UFC Apex facility in Las Vegas.

The pair had originally clashed at UFC 205 back in November 2016 in which Luque picked up a first round knockout win over Muhammad. Currently ranked fifth in the welterweight rankings, the American-born Brazilian has been on a four fight win streak and was last seen in action against Michael Chiesa at UFC 265 in August last year, picking up a 1st round submission win.

Since the defeat against Luque, Muhammad has remained undefeated in all but one fight and is now the 6th ranked UFC welterweight. He last fought on the undercard of UFC Vegas 45 in December, defeating Stephen Thompson via unanimous decision.
