The co-main event featured a UFC Women's Strawweight Championship bout between current champion Carla Esparza and top contender Joanna Jędrzejczyk.^[6]

Matt Brown was scheduled to face Tarec Saffiedine in the main event of UFC Fight Night 60. However, Saffiedine pulled out due to a groin injury and Brown was instead matched up against former UFC Welterweight champion Johny Hendricks at this event.^[7]
