Description

UFC Fight Night: Nzechukwu vs. Cuțelaba (also known as UFC Fight Night 215, UFC on ESPN+ 73 and UFC Vegas 65) was a mixed martial arts event produced by the Ultimate Fighting Championship that took place on November 19, 2022, at the UFC Apex facility in Enterprise, Nevada, part of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Area, United States.

A heavyweight bout between former UFC Heavyweight Championship challenger Derrick Lewis and Sergey Spivak was expected to headline the event. However, while the event was in progress, Lewis was forced to withdraw due to non-COVID, non-weight cutting illness and the bout was cancelled. As a result, the intended light heavyweight co-main event between Kennedy Nzechukwu and Ion Cuțelaba headlined the event, with the fight being confirmed as the new main event just an hour before the start of the main card.
