UFC 256 Live Updates: The action has commenced at the APEX Center, Nevada. So, stay tuned for Live updates.
After a long trail of Pay-Per-Views, we have finally reached the final PPV event of 2020. The event is intermittently hit by the Covid-19 outbreak and yet, it displays a stacked-up card.
Featuring fighters such as Deiveson Figueredo, Tony Ferguson, Charles Oliveira, Brandon Moreno, Kevin Holland, etc, the marquee show is set to rake in big numbers in the form of total buyouts, however, before that, a supreme MMA action awaits.
There are a total of 10 fights lined-up and just like UFC 255, the headliner is a Flyweight title fight. Hence, Deiveson Figuereido will again step inside the Octagon and this time a worthy challenger in the form of Brandon Moreno will be up against him.
Perhaps the biggest star attraction for UFC 256 is its Co-main event, which features Tony Ferguson and Charles Oliveira. The match-up will decide who will advance in the Lightweight title run.
There is a chance that at UFC 256 some record books may get modified as Kevin Holland is a part of the card and would be looking to secure his fifth victory in the calendar year. If he indeed hits the number today then he will become the first middleweight to secure 5 victories in a year.
Besides the aforementioned, the match card promises so much more, therefore, stay put for the final UFC Pay-Per-Show of 2020.
