UFC 308 Preview

UFC 308, set for October 26, 2024, at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi, features an exciting main event between undefeated featherweight champion Ilia Topuria and former champion Max Holloway. Topuria, who holds a perfect 15-0 record, will be defending his title for the first time since his dominant knockout win over Alexander Volkanovski earlier this year. Known for his aggressive striking and high-level grappling, Topuria is confident in his ability to finish Holloway, even predicting a knockout.

Holloway, a seasoned veteran with a 26-7 record, poses a tough challenge. The Hawaiian fighter is famous for his volume striking, relentless pace, and incredible durability, having never been knocked out in his career. He is eager to reclaim the title he last held in 2019 and has the experience to push Topuria deep into a five-round fight.

The co-main event also brings fireworks with a highly anticipated middleweight bout between Robert Whittaker and Khamzat Chimaev. Chimaev remains unbeaten and is looking to solidify his path to a title shot, while Whittaker, a former champion, is coming off an impressive knockout win.

Other notable fights include a featherweight showdown between Lerone Murphy and Dan Ige, as well as a light heavyweight battle between Magomed Ankalaev and Aleksandar Rakic.

This card promises action across divisions and could have significant implications for multiple title pictures
