About UFC 294
Outside of the namesake fight, we’ll see a middleweight bout between the top-ranked Kamaru Usman and fourth-ranked Khamzat Chimaev. Usman has already dominated the Welterweight division in the past — can he add another weight class to his impressive resume? We’ll also get to see Said Nurmagomedov take on Muin Gafurov in a bantamweight contest, for those of you who just want to see that last name on a UFC broadcast again (although the two are not related.)
