UFC 223 will be headlined by interim lightweight champion Tony Ferguson, who battles undefeated contender Khabib Nurmagomedov for the right to be called undisputed champion (adios, McGregor). In the UFC 223 co-headliner, women’s strawweight champion Rose Namajunas rematches Joanna Jedrzejczyk for the 115-pound crown.
Just over one week to go!
