UFC 254 Fight Card

UFC 254 concludes the promotion’s latest trip to Fight island in style on Saturday night, October 24th, and we’ve got the full fight card for you below.

The event is of course headlined by one of the biggest fights of the year as lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov goes up against interim titleholder Justin Gaethje.

Former middleweight champion Robert Whittaker takes the co-main event spot on the card opposite Jared Cannonier, who has been homing in on a title shot thanks to his current three-fight winning streak.

At heavyweight, Alexander Volkov and Walt Harris will both be hoping to get back to winning ways after suffering a loss in their most recent trips to the Octagon.

Lauren Murphy was originally scheduled to fight Cynthia Calvillo, but after her opponent tested positive for Covid-19 she now goes up against late replacement Lilliya Shakirova instead, who has an 8-1 record on the regional circuit.

Opening up the main card will be a jinxed rematch between Magomed Ankalaev and Ion Cutelaba, which the UFC have been trying to make happen for most of this year without success due to coronavirus issues.
