This will be the former champion's third division, and his 27th match for UFC. The match between Edgar and Munhoz was originally scheduled to take place on July 15 but was delayed after Munhoz tested positive for COVID-19. UFC had also planned a fight between #5 middlweight Yoel Romero and former Ultimate Fighter tournament runner-up Urijah Hall as the weekend's main event, but Romero withdrew from the fight due to an undisclosed injury. UFC president Dana White announced that Hall's next opponent will be MMA legend Anderson Silva in October.
