The special presentation kicks off an eight day stretch that will see the two marquis UFC events, featuring four title fights, 29 fights, 24 top-15 ranked fighters. Just one week after UFC 267: Błachowicz vs. Teixeira, the Octagon will be in New York’s Madison Square Garden for UFC 268: Usman vs. Covington 2. It is the first time in a decade that the UFC will feature two of its marquee events just one week apart (previous: UFC 137 and UFC 138, Oct. 29 and Nov. 5, 2011).
UFC 267: Błachowicz vs. Teixeira will stream exclusively on ESPN+ and give all subscribers a chance to watch the stacked UFC card featuring a thrilling pair of championship bouts plus some of the sport’s most exciting rising stars. In the main event, UFC light heavyweight champion Jan Błachowicz will take on no. 1 contender Glover Teixeira.

Also on the UFC 267 card:
Islam Makhachev (no. 5) will bring his eight-fight lightweight unbeaten streak into the Octagon against no.6 lightweight Dan Hooker, who steps in on just one month notice, following his defeat of Nasrat Haqparast at UFC 266.
The exciting and unbeaten welterweight Khamzat Chimaev will face Li Jinliang. Jinliang is coming off a “Performance of the Night” defeat of Santiago Ponzinibbo on Fight Island in January, while Chimaev’s unblemished record has yet to see a fight go beyond round two.

Rising heavyweight hopeful Marcin Tybura (no. 9) will bring a five-fight win streak into the Octagon and face the no. 5-ranked heavyweight Alexander Volkov, who is trying to climb back into title contention after a hard-fought, five-round loss to interim Champion Ciryl Gane.
