NORFOLK, Va. – MMA Junkie is on scene and reporting live from Saturday’s UFC on ESPN+ 27 event, and you can join us for live play-by-play and official results beginning at 5 p.m. ET (2 p.m. PT).

The event takes place at Chartway Arena in Norfolk, Va. The card streams on ESPN+.

In the main event, two-time flyweight title challenger Joseph Benavidez (28-5 MMA, 15-3 UFC) has his third crack at a UFC belt when he takes on Deiveson Figueiredo (17-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC) for the vacant 125-pound title. Only Benavidez can win the title since Figueiredo missed weight on Friday by 2.5 pounds. In the co-feature, former Invicta FC champion Felicia Spencer (7-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) is a big 8-1 favorite in a women’s featherweight bout against Zarah Fairn (6-3 MMA, 0-1 UFC).
