Final Combating Championship (UFC) gave heavyweight rivals Jon Jones and Ciryl Gane their very own poster for the upcoming UFC 285: “Jones vs. Gane” pay-per-view (PPV) occasion this March in Las Vegas (see it right here), although you may argue flyweight foes Valentina Shevchenko and Alexa Grasso deserved some creative actual property for his or her 5 spherical, 125-pound title battle, which serves because the UFC 285 co-main occasion.
UFC 286: “Edwards vs. Usman 3,” that includes the rubber match between newly-crowned welterweight champion Leon Edwards and former 170-pound titleholder Kamaru Usman, will break up the poster with light-weight co-headliners Justin Gaethje and Rafael Fiziev, who throw down in a three-round, non-title battle. Maybe UFC doesn’t believe that Edwards and Usman can carry their very own PPV card from a gross sales perspective.
Take a look at the complete model beneath:
UFC 286 will likely be held on Sat., March 18, 2023 at The O2 in London, England.
Edwards (20-3) starched Usman (20-2) within the fifth spherical of their UFC 278 title battle again in August, snapping “The Nigerian Nightmare’s” unbelievable 19-fight profitable streak and avenging his loss on the UFC on FOX 17 card manner again in late 2015. Gaethje (23-4) is coming off a submission loss to Charles Oliveira and can look to spoil the light-weight ascension of Fiziev (12-1), who’s the winner of six straight with three knockouts.
