The UFC Apex is under the lights once again this Saturday night for the 100th event hosted at the intimate and small scale venue.

Veteran welterweight contender has proved to be a tried and tested gatekeeper at 170-pounds and that's no insult to his career or skillset.

With 33-fights under his belt inside the Octagon, Magny is tough to beat and look impressive against but this is exactly what dangerous finisher Carlos Prates will look to do.

After coming through the Contender Series, he's stopped all three of his opponents, including a big finish over Li Jingliang last time out at UFC 305.

In the co-main event, Miles Johns looks for his biggest win to date when he takes on the former bantamweight champion, Cody Garbrandt.

Another notable clash sees former ONE Championship star Reinier de Ridder make his Octagon debut against Gerald Meerschaert.

Both men are known for submitting their opponents, meaning that this fight could end up playing out as a kickboxing contest.

England's Melissa Mullins is also back in action where she faces Klaudia Syguła at bantamweight.

Former Cage Warriors star Nicolas Dalby is back in action in the featured prelim against Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos and Mansur Abdul-Malik, who was very impressive on this season of the Contender Series, makes his Octagon debut.

With some very talented fighters on the card who could go on to big things in the UFC in the near future, this Apex card could produce some stand out performances on Saturday night in Las Vegas.

UPDATE: Unfortunately, Cody Garbrandt has withdrawn from his co-main event bout due to "undisclosed reasons". Zach Scroggin has also replaced Nicolas Dalby in the featured prelim.
