The first event in Q4 starts with the ever-active Alex Pereira returning to action once again. He will headline UFC 307 in Utah as he puts his belt on the line for a third time against Khalil Rountree. The co-main event on the night is Raquel Pennington vs Juliana Pena. Moreover, the UFC 307 will be followed by two fight nights at the UFC Apex.
Unfortunately, the main events for these fight night cards have not been revealed as of yet. The world leader in MMA then closes out October with another PPV event in Abu Dhabi. It will be headed by a title fight between Max Holloway and Ilia Topuria for the 145-pound belt.
A closer look at the upcoming events for the UFC
After UFC 308, the UFC returns to Canada for a fight night event in Edmonton. The event will be headlined by a clash between Rose Namajunas and Erin Blanchfield. Then, the UFC returns to the Apex before another PPV event. UFC 309 marks the world leader in MMA’s annual trip to Madison Square Garden, and according to reports, Jones vs Miocic will headline this card. However, do note that nothing has been confirmed as of right now.
Following this, two fight night events sandwich UFC 310 which will be the last PPV event of the year. If things play out well, UFC 310 will mark the return of Conor McGregor to the UFC after a three-year hiatus. Needless to say, fans have a stacked schedule and some very interesting fights to look forward to in Q4 of this year.
