When the UFC returns to Madison Square Garden in November, they’re most certainly bringing the heat.
UFC 217 will feature a main event between Michael Bisping and Georges St-Pierre. The two will contest for the UFC’s middleweight title live on pay-per-view on November 4.
But, the UFC isn’t stopping there. UFC officials have also confirmed the addition of a long-awaited bantamweight title fight between Champion Cody Garbrandt and his rival T.J. Dillashaw. The two are expected to throw down in the night’s co-main event.
The UFC has also confirmed the addition of three other bouts. Curtis Blaydes vs. Oleksiy Oliynyk at heavyweight; Corey Anderson vs. Patrick Cummins at light heavyweight; and Aiemann Zahabi vs. Ricardo Ramos at bantamweight.
Other rumored bouts are a female championship contest between Joanna Champion and Rose Namajunas, though that fight has not been made official by the UFC.
Stay tuned as this stacked event continues to develop.
