The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is getting ready for a staggeringly entertaining night of match ups. This time around the world’s most famous mixed martial arts promotion is preparing for UFC 218. The pay-per-view event will take place inside the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan and is set to include a title fight rematch and a heavyweight brawl in the night’s two big events.
In the main event, UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway will be going toe-to-toe with Jose Aldo in a highly anticipated title fight rematch. Holloway unified his title with a TKO finish over Aldo at UFC 212. After Frankie Edgar pulled out of UFC 218’s headliner due to an injury, Aldo stepped up on short notice to challenge Holloway for the title once again.
The co-headliner for the night will be a heavyweight war for division dominance between Alistair Overeem and Francis Ngannou. With the exhilarating match ups set to go down Saturday night, Dec. 2, here is a look at the full fight card and start times for the event.
