UFC 284 card: Makhachev vs Volkanovski and all other fights this weekend
Two title fights will top the UFC 284 card this weekend, as the lightweight and interim featherweight belts are contested in Australia.
In the main event, home fighter and featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski looks to collect the lightweight title, taking on Islam Makhachev in the Russian’s first defence of the belt.
Makhachev will be without coach and childhood friend Khabib Nurmagomedov as he seeks to retain the belt previously held by his compatriot, while Volkanovski will have the full support of the Perth crowd.
Before that, in the co-main event, Yair Rodriguez faces Josh Emmett for the interim featherweight title, determining who will challenge Volkanovski for undisputed status at 145lbs next.
