The UFC 332 card in Salt Lake City pairs a women’s flyweight title fight between Natalia Silva and Wang Cong with a series of undercard bouts featuring prospects and more established fighters. CBS Sports has singled out three match-ups: King Green versus Esteban Ribovics, Roberto Soldic versus Williams, and Anthony Wint versus Armano.

Green, 40, is described by CBS Sports as being on a four-fight winning streak. Ribovics, meanwhile, is reported to have knocked out Edson Barboza in August. Their bout brings together a veteran and a rising contender, according to the preview.

Soldic arrives after what CBS Sports describes as three KSW championship wins across two divisions. He is set to make his UFC debut against Williams, whose full name is not given in the supplied material.

Wint, a former NFL player, is scheduled to face Armano. CBS Sports calls him a heavy betting favourite; the preview’s assessment is not independently verified in the supplied material.

The card also includes Payton Talbott against Deiveson Figueiredo, a bout the preview says has drawn considerable attention. It gives no event date beyond Saturday.
