UFC 328 culminates in a title-fight double-header tonight, as Khamzat Chimaev and Joshua Van defend their belts in Newark, New Jersey.
In the main event, Chimaev puts the middleweight title on the line for the first time, taking on former champion Sean Strickland after a tense build-up, which spilled over into violence at Thursday’s press conference.
The unbeaten Chimaev is a comfortable favourite here, having dominated Dricus Du Plessis to win the belt in August, after “DDP” twice outpointed Strickland.
And in the co-main event, Van makes his first defence of the flyweight strap, as he defends it against Tatsuro Taira – five months after winning the belt in unique circumstances, when Alexandre Pantoja suffered an injury early into their fight.
