UFC Fight Island 7 Card: Preliminary and Main Fight Card

UFC Fight Island 7 is the fight night of the week. Here’s the full fight card of the event.

In a week from now, the 2021 UFC action is set to commence. It is certainly going to be a long year filled with much-anticipated and thrilling matches but, like every journey starts with a single step, UFC Fight Island 7 is the event that will initiate the spectacular.

UFC endured the pandemic-laden year and came out with flying colors, and with riding success, there is every possibility that 2021 will turn out to be even more glorious.

While Conor McGregor’s sought-after comeback and Jon Jones’ debut in the Heavyweight division might proceed as the supposed headlines of the year. However, much-anticipated returns of Henry Cejudo and Khabib Nurmagomedov are also expected to come about in the span of the next 12 months.

Moreover, the recurring question of who will end the year carrying the imperial title of his/her respective weight division will become a subject of intrigue as more contenders will pile up. In compliance with this, former featherweight champion Max Holloway will be out next week to solidify his title contention.
