With UFC 200 being very much dubbed Diaz v McGregor 2, there are still plenty of interest growing in the undercard.
The latest confirmed bout will see Miesha Tate defend her bantamweight crown at the new T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
She'll face Brazilian contender Amanda Nunes on July 9th, having won the belt from Holly Holm at UFC 196 in December.
Nunes (12-4) earned the shot after her recent victory over Valentina Shevchenko, dispelling rumours that Tate would face Holm in a rematch or that former champion Ronda Rousey would once again get a shot at the title.
