UFC has held a PPV in Australia for the previous two years and can proceed doing so this subsequent yr.
No fights have been introduced for UFC 312, however we will count on a slew of Australians to fill the cardboard, resembling Jack Della Maddalena, Robert Whittaker, and Cody Haddon, who’s a brand new addition.
The final time the promotion was in Sydney, Australia, was for UFC 293 on Sept. 10, 2023, and utter insanity occurred that evening as Sean Strickland shocked the combined martial arts (MMA) world by upsetting Israel Adesanya for the Middleweight championship by way of unanimous choice (watch highlights). The co-main occasion, Alexander Volkov, submitted Tai Tuivasa within the second spherical with the uncommon Ezekiel choke.
Will Strickland return to Sydney for his rematch with Dricus Du Plessis? He hopes not.
