"We are the first combat sports league to offer health insurance and shares in the company to show that hey, if you help us build this idea, we'll all win, we'll all eat together," UFL CEO Harrison Rogers told Sherdog.com. "It had only been a crazy idea. It's been like twisting arms to get people to take a chance with us, but the fans want better options for fighters [and] the fighters want better options, so to see that idea come to fruition this weekend is the most fun part."
UFL 5 "Phoenix vs. Las Vegas" will feature a bantamweight title fight between reigning champion Hunter Azure and UFC veteran Vince Morales, with a new team-versus-team format. Coaches Henry Cejudo and Frank Mir will lead their respective teams, which will compete in five matchups, with points awarded for finishes.
