- A planned preliminary fight between Ian Entwistle and Rob Font was scratched this morning from UFC 204 after Entwistle came down with an illness. Font stepped to the scale and weighed in, earning his fight purse for the cancelled bout.

In place of Entwistle-Font on FOX Sports 1 Saturday from the Manchester Arena in Manchester will be Marc Diakiese and Luksaz Sajewski.

- Paige VanZant used her looks to tease a fight announcement on Twitter late Thursday night, posting a series of photos and asking where fans would like to see her compete next.

VanZant is a top contender in the strawweight division, having lost only to former title challenger Rose Namajunas. After competing on "Dancing with the Stars," she returned to action in August and knocked out Bec Rawlings, giving her a 3-1 UFC mark and a 7-2 record overall.
