Overview

The main event at UFC 206 was scheduled between Daniel Cormier and Anthony Johnson, where the pair was set for a rematch. The 37-year-old won the vacant lightweight championship at UFC 187 last May and "DC" was set to defend his title once again on 10 December.

However, Cormier was forced to withdraw from the fight following an injury. The promotion company decided to set up a match between Johnson and Gegard Mousasi, which was turned down by the former. Johnson opted to wait for Cormier to return from injury and then have a rematch.

The fight was then decided between Hollaway and Pettis for the interim featherweight title, which will be the main event at Air Canada Centre on Saturday. The "Showtime" holds an MMA record of 16-3 has not lost a fight since August 2013.

Pettis, who is also known as the "Blessed" has lost three out of his last four fights, which were against Rafael dos Anjos, Eddie Alvarez and Edson Barboza. However, the 29-year-old will be hoping he can beat his compatriot on Saturday.

UFC 206 is the penultimate main event of this calendar year, prior to the big fight between Ronda Rousey and Amanda Nunes at UFC 207 on 30 December. It is also the first big event since Conor McGregor defeated Eddie Alvarez at UFC 205 at Madison Square Garden in New York.
