This is the UFC Vegas 33 live blog for Uriah Hall vs. Sean Strickland, the middleweight headliner for Saturday’s fight card at UFC APEX in Las Vegas.

The middleweight bout pits two division standouts against each other with Hall, the No. 10 fighter in the MMA Fighting Global Rankings, taking on No. 13 Sean Strickland. The bout was originally scheduled to take place at UFC 265 on Aug. 7 before being moved to the main event of the fight card.

The Ultimate Fighter 17 winner Hall is enjoying the longest winning streak of his career after a series of ups and downs that had many questioning his longevity in the UFC. The striking specialist has beaten his past four opponents, taking out former champions in back-to-back fights by stopping Anderson Silva and Chris Weidman; the latter occurred when Weidman broke his leg on a checked kick.

Strickland also has won his past four fights, but has yet to face marquee opposition in the cage. The outspoken fighter also is enjoying the longest winning streak of his octagon career, which he attributed to work with a mental coach.
