ESPN.com had this to offer:

"Pereira's fourth title defense might be his toughest to date. Ankalaev (19-1-1), who is known for his grappling, is coming off a unanimous decision win over Aleksandar Rakic at UFC 308. He has long been after a fight with Pereira and will get his wish in March.

"The co-main event will be a five-round lightweight showdown between former BMF champion Justin Gaethje and Dan Hooker. Two of the most violent strikers in the lightweight division, they will engage in a fight that will garner a lot of attention with the potential to be an early front-runner for fight of the year."
