UFC 280 has three incredible matchups at the top of the card, two of which have titles on the line.
In the feature bout, former bantamweight champion Petr Yan takes on the popular and dynamic Sean O’Malley. This is the one fight of the bunch that is not for a piece of UFC gold, but the winner of this one will be in prime position to make a call for a shot at the belt.
The co-main event stays in the same division, but this one is for all the marbles. Champion Aljamain Sterling looks to defend his title for the second time by taking on former champ T.J. Dillashaw. This one has the trash talk outside of the cage to draw casual fans in, but inside the confines of the octagon, features a classic clash of styles that is always interesting to watch unfold.
Then in the main event, the lightweight division will crown a new king as former champion Charles Oliveira meetsIslam Makhachev for the vacant title. Many still consider Oliveira to be the champion despite his half-pound weight miss, but rules are rules. He will have the opportunity to officially claim that title if he can stop Makhachev’s lengthy win streak.
Which of these three fights is the most interesting to you?
