Barber is a Greeley native, and Namajunas, the former UFC strawweight champion, lives in and trains out of the Denver area. In addition to the headlining hometown connections, local UFC fighter Drew Dober, who trains at Easton Training Center, will also be on the card, according to the UFC.
Although Denver doesn't host as many big fights as Las Vegas, the UFC and mixed martial arts are at home at Mile High. The first-ever UFC match was hosted in Denver, and a long list of amateur and professional fighters live and train here because of the altitude.
