UFC Fight Night : Gane vs. Volkov (also known as UFC Fight Night 190, UFC on ESPN+ 48 and UFC Vegas 30) is an upcoming mixed martial arts event produced by the Ultimate Fighting Championship that will take place on June 26, 2021 at the UFC Apex facility in Enterprise, Nevada, part of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Area, United States.
A heavyweight bout between Ciryl Gane and former Bellator Heavyweight World Champion Alexander Volkov is expected to serve as the event’s headliner.
A middleweight bout between Anthony Hernandez and Punahele Soriano was expected to take place at the event. The pairing was previously scheduled to take place in May 2020 at UFC on ESPN: Overeem vs. Harris, but Soriano pulled out due to undisclosed reasons. In turn, Hernandez pulled out in late May due to a hand injury and was replaced by Brendan Allen, with the new matchup expected to take place a month later at UFC Fight Night: Sandhagen vs. Dillashaw.
A lightweight bout between Yancy Medeiros and Damir Hadžović has been rescheduled for the second time and will take place at the event. The pairing was first scheduled to meet at UFC Fight Night: Font vs. Garbrandt. However, it was pulled from the card just hours before taking place due to health issues with Hadžović.
A women's bantamweight bout between Julija Stoliarenko and Julia Avila has been rescheduled and is expected to take place at this event. The bout was previously scheduled to take place in March at UFC on ESPN: Brunson vs. Holland, but it was cancelled as Stoliarenko was deemed medically unfit to compete due to complications from her weight cut, including collapse twice off the scale during the her attempts.
