Two more things that make this event special is that, one, a portion of the proceeds will go to Breast Cancer Research through The Rose Houston. It is a non-profit organization with a mission to “reduce deaths from breast cancer by providing access to screening, diagnostics and treatment services to any woman regardless of her ability to pay.” And two, the event will be streamed live on UFC Fight Pass.
