Main Event
- Elite welterweights, champion Leon Edwards and No. 2 Belal Muhammad face off in a can’t-miss rematch of their 2021 main event that resulted in a No Contest, this time for the UFC welterweight championship. Edwards (22-3), currently riding a 12-fight win streak that began in 2016, looks to defend his title for the third time with a showstopping performance. Muhammad (23-3), who comes in on a streak of his own with nine victories since 2019, plans to make a statement in their second meeting and leave as champion.
Co-Main Event
- The co-main event features a hard-hitting showdown for the interim UFC heavyweight championship with a rematch between titleholder Tom Aspinall and No. 4 Curtis Blaydes, following Aspinall sustaining a knee injury that put an early end to their first meeting in 2022. Aspinall (14-3), who holds an impressive 100% career finish rate and the shortest average fight time in UFC history, looks to even the score with a convincing victory in his first title defense and cement his place in the division. Blaydes (18-4), the UFC heavyweight division leader for most takedowns, plans to take full advantage of his first championship opportunity and deliver Aspinall his second loss in the Octagon.
Additional PPV Card Highlights
- In a lightweight contest, No. 15 King Green (32-15-1) looks to put an end to rising star Paddy Pimblett’s (21-3) perfect 5-0 start in the UFC, including three “performance of the night” awards.
- Middleweights Christian Leroy Duncan (10-1) and Gregory Rodrigues (15-5) look to continue their recent success, both coming in with back-to-back stoppage wins.
- Top 10 featherweights No. 6 Arnold Allen (19-3) and No. 10 Giga Chikadze (15-3) battle to move up in the division to kick off the ESPN+ PPV main card.
