The UFC always ups its game for Independence Day weekend. This year is no exception.
Despite what seems these days to be the inevitable angel's share—injuries, drug test failures and the dilution of talent because of a new abundance of events—exacting its cut off the top, UFC 175 still looks and feels like a glamorous card.
The whole thing goes down Saturday from that little MMA oasis in the desert, Las Vegas. Anchoring the event are two title fights: Chris Weidman defends his middleweight strap against Lyoto Machida , and Ronda Rousey looks to fight off another challenger in Alexis Davis.
Perhaps the depth isn't what it normally is for a marquee UFC. Chael Sonnen failed a drug test and was pulled from his fight with Vitor Belfort . An injury to Junior dos Santos resulted in a match between Daniel Cormier and Dan Henderson moving to another card bolster it in dos Santos' absence.
But UFC 175 is still very solid. Here's a look at the full slate, from Fight Pass to finale, including information capsules, viewing coordinates and predictions for each and every contest.
