Because You Can’t Wait Another Second for More Fighting!

So, you’re looking to get a closer look at the top four fights of UFC 290? Well, lucky for you, we have the “Countdown” video right here! It’s only a few hundred minutes long—no big deal. Grab some popcorn and get ready to be transported to T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Saturday, July 8th, for this epic event.

Now, let’s talk about the main event that everyone is buzzing about. Featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski is attempting to defend his title—for the fifth freaking time! Talk about overachieving. But wait! The universe seems intrigued by such an impressive streak because they’ve served up interim titleholder Yair Rodriguez as his opponent. Can Volkanovski continue dominating or will Rodriguez put an end to his reign of featherweight terror?

Next up on our journey towards titanic takedowns and sweat-soaked submissions is Brandon Moreno—the guy who just regained his flyweight belt like it was something he misplaced under the couch cushions—and he’ll be facing off against Alexandre Pantoja. What makes this match even more exciting is that Pantoja has already handed Moreno two losses in their previous encounters. Is three strikes enough for Moreno? Or can he finally turn the tables on Pantoja?

Oh hey there, Robert Whittaker and Dricus Du Plessis are also on this fight card—an intriguing middleweight bout that UFC President Dana White himself proclaimed as a title eliminator for Israel Adesanya (that name sounds familiar). Will Whittaker prevail and secure another shot at Adesanya’s crown? Or will Du Plessis shock us all with an upset victory and send Whittaker into the land of retirement? Either way, I hope they both bring their A-game and serve up some killer knockouts.

Oh, what’s this? Bo Nickal is making his second octagon appearance? Who the heck is Bo Nickal anyway? Well, ladies and gentlemen, he will be stepping into the cage to face off against Tresean Gore in an intense 185-pound clash. Will Nickal show us just how amazing he really is or will Gore rain on his parade—quite literally if it starts pouring inside T-Mobile Arena?
