UFC returns to Fight Island with UFC 254 on 24 October 2020 and the event will be headlined by the UFC Lightweight title fight between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Justin Gaethje.
Khabib comes in with an undefeated record of 28-0 to his name and will be looking to add another dominant victory to his resume. He is currently tied for the longest active win streak in the UFC with 12 wins in a row having secured wins against the likes of Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier among others.
Elsewhere, Justin Gaethje produced a dominant performance against Tony Ferguson in his last fight and will be looking to build on that momentum. With a professional record of 22-2 to his name, Justin is a proven-finisher with 20 out of his 22 wins coming via finishes. His wins over Edson Barboza and Donald Cerrone were also instrumental to his rise towards the Interim title.
The co-main event of the event will see former Middleweight Champion Robert Whittaker going up against Jared Cannonier. Whittaker will be looking to continue his journey towards a title shot when Cannonier would be looking to secure the biggest win of his career at UFC 254.
Also on the card is the Heavyweight showdown between Alexander Volkov and Walt Harris. Cynthia Calvillo will be locking horns with Lauren Murphy as well when the much-awaited showdown between Magomed Ankalaev and Ion Cutelaba will serve as the opener for the main card.
