Exciting news for UFC fans as the highly anticipated annual pay-per-view event in Abu Dhabi is set to feature an epic main event showdown between Ilia Topuria and Max Holloway at UFC 308. Topuria will be defending his featherweight title against BMF champion Holloway in what promises to be a thrilling matchup. Originally scheduled for UFC 307 in October, this leaves a vacant headline spot for that card.
In a recent episode of Heck of a Morning, MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck shares his reactions to Dana White’s announcement of the Topuria vs. Holloway main event on Oct. 26. The card will also feature Robert Whittaker vs. Khamzat Chimaev as the co-main event, along with other exciting bouts. Discussions also include speculations on what will headline UFC 307 on Oct. 5, the possibility of Arman Tsarukyan fighting for the interim lightweight title in place of the injured Islam Makhachev, Dana White’s comments on Tom Aspinall, and more.
