After a fantastic UFC 287 in Miami, the fans are still hungover from the effect of the event. The buzz around UFC 287 was huge as UFC did an event in Miami after 20 years.

Miami fans also got to see a crazy knockout in the main event. Fans around the world are wondering if there is any UFC event this weekend.
Israel Adesanya regained his middleweight championship by knocking out Alex Pereira in Round 2 of the main event.

UFC featherweight division:
The main event between Max Holloway and Arnold Allen is an important match up for the division. This could very well be the number one contenders fight for the featherweight belt. Alexander Volkanovski will fight the interim champion Yair Rodrigues for the 145-pound belt.
Max Holloway is a hard fight for anyone in the division. His crisp boxing, hand speed and cardio are the things that one has to deal with. Arnold Allen on the other hand is a young and upcoming fighter from the UK.
We have seen Allen train with Leon Edwards at times. His impressive win was against Dan Hooker back in his hometown. With an impressive record of 19 wins and 1 loss, he has a very good chance of getting the victory against the toughest challenge in the division.
