The main event sees Alexander Volkanovski challenge Islam Makhachev for the lightweight belt again, after Kamaru Usman battles Khamzat Chimaev
Featherweight champion Volkanovski came up narrowly short against Makhachev in February, losing on points, and now he replaces the injured Charles Oliveira on 11 days’ notice for a rematch.
In the co-main event, Kamaru Usman is also a short-notice replacement, taking on Khamzat Chimaev on 10 days’ notice after Paulo Costa withdrew amid a slew of surgeries.
That bout marks Usman’s middleweight debut, 14 months after his reign as welterweight champion ended, as he faces one of the most dominant prospects in MMA.

When Charles Oliveira pulled out of the UFC 294 main event with injury last week, MMA fans surely couldn't have imagined that Dana White would pull out an even more appetizing opponent for Lightweight champion Islam Makhachev. Enter Alexander Volkanovski and a repeat of arguably 2023's best fight so far. Yes please!
Back at UFC 284 in February, the pair fought five gruelling rounds before Makhachev's hand was raised in victory by a unanimous points decision. A rematch was always going to be in the offing, although who could have predicted it would come around so soon?
With a winning streak stretching back over eight years, the champ will enter the Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi as favorite to retain his strap once again. The Sambo master is always going to be a handful on the canvas, but he surprised Volkanovski with the strength of his striking first time around. If it was in any doubt, it demonstrated that the Russian is a multifaceted martial artist who'll leave his opponent with nowhere to hide in the Octagon.
Aussie Alexander 'the Great' Volkanovski held his own (and then some) after stepping up from his usual Featherweight in the first encounter with Makhachev. Dispelling any notion that he would be dominated by the heavier man was put to rest in 25 minutes that Volkanovski described as '"fun" immediately afterwards.
Saturday's bout gives the reigning Featherweight champion another golden opportunity to join the pantheon of greats who have held simultaneous UFC titles in different weight classes. Only Conor McGregor, Daniel Cormier, Amanda Nunes and Henry Cejudo have previously managed that feat.
