BLOCKBUSTER BANTAMWEIGHT BATTLE! Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) returns to Newark, N.J., for the first time in more than three years on Sat., May 6, 2023, with a blockbuster Bantamweight collision inside Prudential Center that will see Aljamain Sterling attempt another successful title defense against returning two-division titleholder and former gold medal-winning Olympic wrestler, Henry Cejudo. In UFC 288’s last-minute pay-per-view (PPV) co-main event, former Welterweight title challenger, Gilbert Burns, locks horns with No. 4-seeded contender, Belal Muhammad, in a five-round, 170-pound No. 1 contender eliminator match.
But before the anticipated headliner gets underway UFC 272 will feature a slew of exciting matchups from start to finish. This includes Khamzat Chimaev’s attempt to break into the Top Five opposite Gilbert Burns, Mackenzie Dern’s important Strawweight tilt with perennial contender Tecia Torres, and Olympian Mark Madsen’s showdown versus veteran scrapper Vinc Pichel.
We will compile the best of the best below — with all video footage courtesy of UFC and ESPN — and will continue to share the action as it rolls in. Enjoy!
