What Time Is Ufc In Abu Dhabi?
The program for UFC 280 is coming together little by bit, and the event is set to take place on October 22 of this year. The occasion will take place in the Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and will most likely get underway about 6:00 PM Eastern Standard Time.
- At the moment, there are seven mouthwatering mixed martial arts matches scheduled to take place at the event in the UAE.
- The main fight is going to be Charles Oliveira competing against Islam Makhachev for the unclaimed lightweight championship of the UFC.
- At the moment, Justin Gaethje sits atop the 155-pound division throne after the Brazilian fighter who previously held it was disqualified for failing to make weight during their fight at UFC 274.
As of right now, the bantamweight championship fight between champion Aljamain Sterling and T.J. Dillashaw is taking place in the co-main event slot. The latter fighter had previously competed for a UFC championship in 2019 in the flyweight category, but he was defeated by Henry Cejudo in the first round of their bout.
- Sterling was a controversial champion in the beginning since he won the championship against Petr Yan by disqualification after the Russian athlete illegally kneed the American.
- However, he has since competed against Yan again and emerged victorious in a split decision.
- In addition to the unexpected revelation that Petr Yan will be fighting Sean O’Malley, another fight that was recently added to the schedule is one between Belal Muhammad and Sean Brady.
“Sugar” has built quite a reputation for himself in the UFC, but when he fights Yan at UFC 280, he will face a significant step up in the level of competition. When Beneil Dariush faces Polish rising star Mateusz Gamrot on the main show, he will be competing in the lightweight class and will be looking to extend his incredible victory run in this division.
This fight will be the only one on the main card that has been announced up until this point; there will be two more bouts on the preliminary cards. In the featherweight class, the Russian Zubaira Tukhugov faces off against the Brazilian Lucas Almeida, while in the women’s division, two more Brazilians square off against one another.
In the women’s 115-pound class, Marina Rodriguez will compete against Amanda Lemos.
