A middleweight bout between former UFC Welterweight Championship challenger Darren Till and Marvin Vettori was expected to serve as the event headliner. However on March 30, Till withdrew from the fight due to a broken collarbone. It was announced on April 1 that Kevin Holland would step in on 9 days notice to face Vettori. With his second main event in three weeks, Holland tied the record for shortest turnaround between two main events.

Bea Malecki was expected to face Norma Dumont Viana in a women's bantamweight bout at this event. However, Malecki pulled out a week before the contest due to undisclosed reasons and was replaced by promotional newcomer Erin Blanchfield. At the weigh-ins, Dumont Viana weighed in at 139.5 pounds, three and a half pounds over the division's non-title fight limit and therefore the contest was cancelled by the Nevada State Athletic Commission.
A middleweight bout between Kyle Daukaus and Aliaskhab Khizriev was expected to take place at the event. However on April 7, the bout was pulled from the card due to COVID-19 protocols. It is now expected to be rescheduled for a later date.
