UFCThe lightweight fight here in the prelim is one that could eventually be seen as a main card fight. The battle between Benitez who is a fairly seasoned veteran will be taking on Morales who is unbeaten going through his first nine fights. No matter what the fight here is one that will be a great battle that is going to showcase another upcoming fighter to take on the veteran.
