UFC 263
For the first time in more than two years, Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) returns to Arizona on Sat., June 12, 2021, welcoming fans back at full capacity inside Gila River Arena in Glendale. UFC 263 features a pair of highly-anticipated championship rematches, with Middleweight kingpin, Israel Adesanya, looking to once again fend off No. 3-ranked contender Marvin Vettori in the ESPN+-streamed pay-per-view (PPV) main event of the evening. In the co-headliner, Flyweight roost-ruler, Deiveson Figueiredo, and No. 1-seeded Brandon Moreno will run back their thrilling five-round instant classic that ended via majority draw in Dec. 2020. Last, and certainly not least, No. 3-ranked Welterweight Leon Edwards welcomes back fan-favorite Nate Diaz in the promotion's first-ever non-main event, five-round fight. We'll stockpile all the real-time UFC 263 updates, odds, start time, tickets, weigh ins, predictions, previews, video highlights, press conferences, winners, losers and much more from "The Grand Canyon State" right here before, during and well after the ESPN+-streamed PPV live show concludes.
