Description
The event was headlined by a middleweight bout between former UFC Middleweight champion Anderson Silva and former WEC & Strikeforce Welterweight champion Nick Diaz. It was Silva's first fight since his gruesome leg injury at UFC 168.

A flyweight bout between Ian McCall and John Lineker was originally booked for UFC Fight Night: Shogun vs. St. Preux. However, the bout was canceled on the day of the event as McCall was stricken with a blood infection. The fight was later rescheduled for this event.

A middleweight bout between Ed Herman and Derek Brunson was originally booked for UFC on Fox: dos Santos vs. Miocic. However, the bout was cancelled on the day of the event as Brunson was stricken with a stomach ailment. The fight was later rescheduled for this event.

Both Kelvin Gastelum and John Lineker missed weight on their first attempts at the weigh ins, coming in at 180 lbs and 130 lbs respectively. They were both given additional time to make the weight limits for their respective weight classes, but made no attempts to cut further. Instead, they were both fined 30 percent of their fight purses, which went to Tyron Woodley and Ian McCall respectively. This marked the fourth time that Lineker missed weight in his UFC career. As a result, UFC President Dana White stated both fighters will have to move up a weight class for their next fights, due to their recurring issues with weight cutting.

A featherweight bout between Jimy Hettes and Diego Brandão, slated for the Fight Pass preliminary portion of the card was canceled right before the event started, as Hettes passed out backstage. He was taken to a local hospital for precautionary reasons. Subsequently, both fighters were paid their show money.
