In the co-main event, the interim heavyweight title is on the line between Tom Aspinall and Sergei Pavlovich. The original main event between Stipe Miocic and Jon Jones fell apart after Jones got injured during training.Update: Poatan got the job done in the Big Apple with a knockout of former champion Jiri Prochzka. The slightly controversial stoppage saw Pereira drop Prochazka and the ref stepped in right away. Prochazka appeared rocked but not completely out of the fight.
