This weekend, the Ultimate Fighting Championship kicks off the final month of 2017 with a bang, with a loaded UFC 218 pay-per-view event set to take place in Detroit.
The event is headlined by a featherweight championship bout between current title holder Max Holloway and former champ Jose Aldo. It’s a rematch of their previous meeting at UFC 212 in June where Holloway unified the titles with a third-round TKO victory.
In the co-main event, heavyweights Alistair Overeem and Francis Ngannou go head-to-head in what should be a thrilling slugfest.
The main card also features a lightweight contender bout between Eddie Alvarez and Justin Gaethje, who served as head coaches on season 26 of The Ultimate Fighter. If that wasn’t enough to get fans excited, the main card is rounded out by a flyweight scrap between Henry Cejudo and Sergio Pettis and a strawweight bout featuring Tecia Torres and Michelle Waterson.
