UFC returns to Chicago with an incredible fight card for UFC 238 at the United Center. It's headlined by two title fights.

In the main event, UFC flyweight champion and Olympic gold medalist Henry Cejudo moves up in weight to challenge Marlon Moraes for the vacant bantamweight title. The belt was vacated after champion TJ Dillashaw failed a drug test for banned substances. In Dillashaw's first title reign, he successfully defended the belt against Renan Barão at a UFC on FOX card in July 2015. It was Dillashaw's final successful title defense before losing the belt to Dominick Cruz.

In the co-main event women's flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko put her belt on the line against Jessica Eye, a Cleveland, Ohio native.

Shevchenko has fought in Chicago before, famously beating former women's bantamweight champion Holly Holm at a UFC on FOX card in 2016. It was Holm's first fight after dropping the bantamweight title to Miesha Tate at UFC 196.

Eye has also previously fought in Chicago, losing to Tate via unanimous decision at a UFC on FOX card in July of 2015.

The card also features a couple local fighters.

Ricardo Lamas grew up in Hinsdale, attended college in Elmhurst and owns a UFC Cym in Naperville. Eddie Wineland grew up in norhtwest Indiana.

Crystal Lake's Felice Herrig was scheduled to fight on the card but was forced to withdraw after suffering a torn ACL.
