The UFC will be making their debut at The Theater at Virgin Hotels on March 8th with a stacked fight card. Headlining this fight are two of the best fighters in the men’s bantamweight division in #2 Petr Yan takes on #3 Merab Dvalishvili.
These two genuinely do not like each other one bit which will make for a barn burner of a main event. There is also a very good chance that the winner of this fight could be next in line for a title shot which means there is a lot on the line.
In the co-main event, we have a heavyweight banger between #14 Alexandr Romanov and #8 Alexander Volkov. This fight should bring fireworks from the opening bell until someone gets finished which is the most likely outcome.
The rest of this fight card is littered with great fights, mixed with UFC veterans and up-and-coming talent. We had a change in the first fight of the night between Carlston Harris and Abubakar Nurmagomedov.
Nurmagomedov had to withdraw from the fight due to injury and stepping in on just a day’s notice is Jared Gooden who is looking to rebound in his second stint with the promotion. Gooden went 1-3 in his first stint with the promotion, once he was released he went 4-1 with his last two wins coming inside the distance.
