A women's flyweight bout between former Invicta FC Bantamweight Champion Lauren Murphy and Mara Romero Borella was initially scheduled for this event. On June 20, matchmakers moved the bout a week ahead to UFC on ESPN: Covington vs. Lawler.

A heavyweight bout between Tanner Boser and Giacomo Lemos was scheduled. On July 25, the bout was scrapped due to Lemos testing positive for an unspecified banned substance.
