Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is gearing up to return to big FOX this Saturday night (April 14, 2018), as the world’s leading mixed martial arts (MMA) organization invades the Gila River Arena in Glendale, Arizona.
UFC on FOX 29 is set to feature a lightweight scrap that will see Justin Gaethje and Dustin Poirier duke it out in the main attraction in a bout that could have major title implications now that the division is a lot clearer.
Poirier is riding a two-fight win streak with a “No Contest” sandwiched in between against Eddie Alvarez. A third straight win for “Diamond” could go a long way in giving him his first shot at UFC gold. As for Justin, he suffered his first-ever loss to the aforementioned Alvarez in a thrilling “Fight of the Year” candidate at UFC 218.
UFC on FOX 29 will also feature a co-main event bout between Welterweight contenders Carlos Condit and Alex Oliveira.
