What’s On the Fight Card?

A simmering featherweight contest has been confirmed for UFC 308, with champion Ilia Topuria facing off against second-ranked Max Holloway, while the co-main event will see No.3 ranked Robert Whittaker take on Khamzat Chimaev, representing the UAE, in a five-round contest.

Other exciting fights confirmed for the Etihad Arena will include Ciryl Gane taking on Alexander Volkov in a battle of heavyweights, while Dagestani Magomed Ankalaev faces Aleksandar Rakic in the light heavyweight bout.

Abu Dhabi just hosted an explosive Fight Night this past weekend at the Etihad Arena, prior to which a searing UFC 294 took the capital by storm last October with huge names in the business such as Islam Makhachev, Khamzat Chimaev, and others registering thumping wins in the octagon.
